Characterization of normal and abnormal variants of galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (EC 2.7.7.12) by
Human Genetics
|January 1, 1983
Abstract:
Isoelectric focusing (IEF) in polyacrylamide gels has been used to study the isozymes of human galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (GALT) in erythrocytes and fibroblasts. In addition to the usefulness of IEF in differentiating normal, Duarte variant, and galactosemic homozygotes and heterozygotes, the ability of IEF to distinguish the residual GALT activity in two different galactosemic fibroblast lines and in revertants from them is demonstrated.
