title: Genetic defects of lysosomal function in animals.
abstract: In this article we have described studies using animals with genetic lysosomal defects with particular emphasis on mutant disorders that have contributed toward understanding of pathogenesis and/or management of analogous human conditions. The development of newer strategies in the production and use of animal models will greatly expand the contribution of this resource to biology and medicine.
