(18) The persistence of a second major hexosaminidase isozyme, HEX B, does not protect against the lethal accumulation of GM2 ganglioside in the central nervous system.
(19) The results suggest that, in the patient's fibroblasts, a defect in beta-chain synthesis or processing precludes the self-association of beta-chains to form Hex B, but does not prevent the association of alpha- and beta-chains to form Hex A.

Lex
Definition:
(n.) Law; as, lex talionis, the law of retaliation; lex terrae, the law of the land; lex fori, the law of the forum or court; lex loci, the law of the place; lex mercatoria, the law or custom of merchants.
Example Sentences:
