The gene for the second (serum) isoform is mapped to chromosome 6q (GEM:06q2/FUCA2). It is the relationship of FUCA1 with an alpha fucosidase regulator (GEM:01p34/FUCA1RA) that remains unclear: the putative gene is included only in the MIM catalogue and is not registred in the GDB." |

PAT |
Three clinical forms of the fucosidosis are recognized. Forms I and II are severe, with early ages of onset (before 2 years of age); form III is characterized by later ages of onset (young or adult) and slower progression of the disease. Since FUCA1 is a homotetramere, the clinical and genetic heterogeneity might be due to multiple alleles. Deletions in the FUCA1 gene are already found for forms I and II." |
