✦ Synopsis

A novel polymorphism in the coding sequence of the human RET proto-oncogene is described. The RET proto-oncogene maps to chromosome 10q11.2, and is involved in multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN 2A, MEN 2B), familial medullary thyroid carcinoma and Hirschsprung's disease.

Germline mutations of the RET proto-oncogene have been found in familial and sporadic forms of Hirschsprung disease (HSCR), but also in the autosomal dominantly inherited multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN2) syndromes, which comprise the medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) as an obligatory featu

Human piebaldism is a rare autosomal dominant disorder that comprises congenital patchy depigmentation of the scalp, forehead, trunk and limbs. It is caused by mutations in the cell-surface receptor tyrosine kinase gene (KIT, also c-kit). We screened three families and three isolated cases of piebal

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an X-linked degenerative disorder of muscle, caused by gross rearrangements by the dystrophin gene in two-thirds of cases. The remaining one-third of patients may carry more subtle mutations that are difficult to detect because of the large size and complexity of
