Leprechaunism is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by marked intrauterine and postnatal growth retardation, severe insulin resistance, and altered glucose homeostasis. This syndrome is related to mutations in the insulin receptor (IR) gene that impair the transmission of the insulin
Transthyretin methionine 30 (TTR Met 30), which is associated with familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy, originates in a single base substitution (A for G) in the second exon of the TTR gene. This autosomal dominant disease can be diagnosed by RFLP analysis of NsiI-digested DNA. The amplification of
The Angelman (AS) and PraderΒ±Willi syndromes (PWS) are clinically distinct neurobehavioural syndromes resulting from loss of maternal (AS) or paternal contributions (PWS) of imprinted genes within the chromosomal 15q11-q13 region. The molecular diagnosis of both syndromes can be made by a variety of
