Preferred Label : Gm1-gangliosidosis, type III;

Symbol : GM1G3;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Gangliosidosis, generalized gm1, type III; Gangliosidosis, generalized gm1, adult type; Gangliosidosis, generalized gm1, type 3; Gangliosidosis, generalized gm1, chronic type;

Description : GM1-gangliosidosis type III is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder characterized by neurodegeneration and mild skeletal changes. Age at onset ranges from 3 to 30 years. The disorder is less severe than GM1-gangliosidosis types I and II (230600). Type III shows extreme clinical variability, with some patients having only focal neurologic signs, such as dystonia, and others having more severe involvement with extrapyramidal signs and mental retardation. GLB1 enzymatic activity usually ranges from approximately 4 to 10% of control values (Suzuki et al., 2001).;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the beta-1-galactosidase gene (GLB1, 230500.0004);

Laboratory abnormalities : Decreased beta-galactosidase activity (leukocyte, fibroblast, plasma);

Prefixed ID : #230650;
