Fabry disease: A genetic disease caused by a mutation in the GLA gene, resulting in a deficiency of the enzyme alpha-galactosidase A, also known as ceramide trihexosidase.This enzyme is essential to the metabolism of a fat compound known as globotriaosylceramide.abry disease: A genetic disease caused by a mutation in the GLA gene, resulting in a deficiency of the enzyme alpha-galactosidase A, also known as ceramide trihexosidase.
There are over 600 mutations in the GLA gene that is responsible for Fabry disease, thus, the severity and range of symptoms may vary among individuals. Absent enzyme activity results in the classic subtype, while patients with the later-onset subtype have residual enzyme activity.abry disease is a rare genetic disorder of fat (lipid) metabolism characterized by a deficiency of the enzyme alpha-galactosidase A (previously known as ceramide trihexosidase). The disorder belongs to a group of diseases known as lysosomal storage disorders.
