Phenotypic heterogeneity of N370S homozygotes with type I Gaucher disease: an analysis of 798 patients from the ICGG Gaucher Registry.

abstract：:Massive production and accumulation of a single abnormal protein may constitute a major toxic burden for the cell and even compromise the organism's long-term viability. Consequently, adaptation and survival have forced evolution to create 'quality control' mechanisms that detect, monitor, and often degrade such abnor...
