Altered expression of ganglioside metabolizing enzymes results in GM3 ganglioside accumulation in cerebellar cells of a mouse model of juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis
Juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (JNCL) is caused by mutations in the CLN3 gene. Most JNCL patients exhibit a 1.02 kb genomic deletion removing exons 7 and 8 of this gene, which results in a truncated CLN3 protein carrying an aberrant C-terminus. A genetically accurate mouse model (Cln3Δex7/8...
