Fabry disease is a rare X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the galactosidase alpha (GLA) gene, resulting in the accumulation of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) and its deacetylated form, globotriaosylsphingosine (Lyso-Gb3) in various tissues and fluids throughout the body. This evidence concerns the gene GLA and Fabry disease.
