Hemophilia A is an X-linked bleeding disease caused by mutations in the coagulation factor VIII gene. The identification and characterization of pathogenic mutations allows the recognition of new mechanisms of functional disturbances of factor VIII. To screen for mutations exons 1-26 of the factor V

Hemophilia A is a common X-linked bleeding disorder caused by mutations in the coagulation factor VIII gene. The entire coding and essential sequences of the factor VIII gene were generated by a combination of genomic DNA amplification and long reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (long R
Small consensus sequences have been defined for RNA splicing, but questions about splicing in humans remain unanswered. Analysis of germline mutations in the factor IX gene offers a highly advantageous system for studying the mutational process in humans. In a sample of 860 families with hemophilia
This study was intended to evaluate a diagnostic reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction based protein-truncation test for the identification of germline mutations in the serine/threonine protein kinase 11 (STK11, also designated LKB1) gene in Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS). Our data exemplify
Gyrate atrophy (GA) is an autosomal recessive eye disease involving a progressive loss of vision due to chorioretinal degeneration in which the mitochondrial matrix enzyme ornithine aminotransferase (OAT) is defective. Two sisters with GA are described in this study in whom an A-to-G substitution at
Five novel mutations are described which result in the rare hyperphenylalaninemia DHPR-deficiency. Three of these are located at different intron/exon boundaries within the DHPR gene, and disrupt the maturation of the DHPR transcript such that little full-length mRNA can be detected by RT-PCR. Each
