✦ Synopsis
We have analysed five Southern European populations (Albanian, Greek, Italian, Spanish and Yugoslavian) for 14 cystic fibrosis (CF) mutations. The most frequent mutations, apart from AF508, were G542X (6.04%), R1162X (3.61%) and N1303K (3.24%). Each of the other analysed mutations were present at a frequency of less than 1%

A representative multicenter cystic fibrosis (CF) mutation analysis on about half of all known cystic fibrosis patients of the 5 East German Länder is reported. Analyses for 17 mutations, among them Delta F508, R553X, G542X, S549R,N,I, G551D, S1255X, R347P,H, and Y122X, were performed. As expected,
We carried out molecular analysis of 80 chromosomes from 40 unrelated Mexican patients with a diagnosis of cystic fibrosis. The study was performed in two PCR steps: a preliminary one to identify mutation ⌬F508, the most frequent cause of cystic fibrosis worldwide, and the second a reverse dot-blot
