We studied 20 unrelated NF1 patients by Southern blots with seven cDNA probes and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) analysis with four intragenic microsatellites (IVS26-2.3, IVS27AC28.4, IVS27AC33.1, and IVS38GT53.0). Four novel large deletions (178, 184, 236, and 237) have been identified and characteri
We describe an RsaI polymorphism in the transcribed region (exon 5) of the neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1)-gene.
## Communicated by Michael Goossens A total of 500 unselected unrelated neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) patients were screened for deletions of the NF1 gene. After excluding 67 patients with known intragenic NF1 mutations, the remaining 433 were genotyped using six intragenic and one distal microsatellit
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by abnormalities of tissues predominantly derived from the neural crest. Symptoms are highly variable and severity cannot be predicted, even within families. DNA of 84 unrelated patients with NF1, unselected for clinical
