A factor has been isolated from serum of homozygotes and obligate heterozgotes for cystic fibrosis using isoelectric focusing and disc electrophoresis as analytical methods. The factor is focused within an IgG-fraction with an isoelectric point of pH 8 to 9 but differs from IgG in its lower molecula
## Abstract In Causasian populations cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common autosomal recessive disorder. CF was previously considered rare in Mexico; however, the reported frequency is about 1% in autopsies. This discrepancy appears to be due to the inability to diagnose the illness during life.
In the present paper, we applied surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and biosensor technologies for biospecific interaction analysis (BIA) to detect DF508 mutation (F508del) of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene in both homozygous as well as heterozygous human subjects. The proposed
In order to recognize the presence of the R553X point mutation of the cystic fibrosis (CF) gene in the human genome, a peptide nucleic acid (PNA) complementary to the mutated gene tract and bearing three adjacent chiral monomers based on D-lysine (chiral box) was synthesized and used as a probe in C
