## Paalman Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a common genetic renal disorder (incidence, 1:1,000). The mutation of PKD1 is thought to account for 85% of ADPKD. Although a considerable number of studies on PKD1 mutation have been published recently, most of them concern Caucasi
Since identification of the genes mutated in patients with Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease, PKD1 and PKD2, a large number of different germ line mutations in both genes have been found by conventional PCR-based mutation detection methods. Nevertheless, in approximately 40% of the PKD1 f
