When considering the cause of the disease in a patient who is the child of an inbred couple, it was found that 4 enzymes in the lysosome were inactivated. When comparing the amino acid sequences of these four enzymes with the wild-type enzyme, no difference was found in the number and arrangement of amino acids. Given mutations that may be the cause of the patient's disease above.
