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
In ethnic heterogeneous California, complete genetic information is currently lacking to build solid population-based cystic fibrosis (CF) screening programs because a large proportion of mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR/ABCC7) are still unknown, especi
The suggested incidence of cystic fibrosis (CF) in Asian migrants (Indians and Pakistanis) in the United Kingdom is about 1 in 10,000 to 12,000 [Goodchild et al., 1974]. There are no large studies on CF in Asian Indians. The disorder is thought to be rare and most studies from the Asian subcontinent
