Myoinositol
appears to be a competitive inhibitor of alpha-galactosidase activity in fibroblasts of normal human skin but not of the residual alpha-galactosidase activity of fibroblasts obtained from patients with
Fabry's disease
. It is suggested that normal fibroblasts contain two alpha-galactosidases, only one of which is present in cells from patients with
Fabry's disease
, and that these enzymes can be distinguished by their different Michaelis constants, rates of heat inactivation, and responses to the inhibitor myoinositol.
