title: Biochemical basis of late-onset neurolipidoses.
abstract: The occurrence and the tremendous phenotypic variability of late-onset neurolipidosis variants are explained on the basis of a simple kinetic model that describes the correlation between residual activity of a deficient lysosomal enzyme and the degradation rate of its substrate in the lysosome.
