It is caused by mutation in the alpha subunit of the HEXOSAMINIDASE A resulting in lipid-laden ganglion cells. It is also known as the B variant (with increased HEXOSAMINIDASE B but absence of hexosaminidase A) and is strongly associated with Ashkenazic Jewish ancestry.

D049290 |
[A progressive neurodegenerative disorder that begins with muscle weakness, then progresses to startle reaction, retardation and seizures.
