Here we identify three novel mutations in the GLB1 gene from two Han Chinese patients with GM1 that appear correlated with clinical phenotype. Methods One of the two Han Chinese patients with GM1 presented with the juvenile form and the other with the infantile form with cardiac involvement. Sequencing of the entire GLB1 gene revealed three novel mutations D which were absent in 94 normal controls. Transient expression of cDNA encoding these variants was performed in COS-1 cells to evaluate p-galactosidase activities. Results The first case patient 1 with the juvenile form contained two missense mutations D and . Patient 2 diagnosed with the infantile form of the disease with cardiac involvement was compound heterozygous for and mutations. All mutant beta-galactosidases exhibited significantly reduced activity 12 0 0 and 0 for D and compared with the wild-type betagalactosidase cDNA clone. The mutations identified in patient 2 with cardiomyopathy were localized in the GLB1 gene region common to both lysosomal beta-galactosidase and elastin binding protein EBP and caused a deletion in the elastin-binding domain of EBP. Conclusions All four mutations identified in Han Chinese patients induce significant suppression of p-galactosidase activity correlating with severity of .
