In the present study the entire NF1 coding region was analyzed for mutations in 132 unrelated Italian NF1 patients. Using PTT, SSCP, and DNA sequencing, we found 8 novel mutations. Clinical diagnosis of NF1 was established according to the NIH consensus criteria. We detected 59 truncated fragments,
Direct sequencing of segments of the factor VIII gene in 30 hemophiliacs with sporadic disease (32+ kb of sequence in total) revealed two missense transitions: glutamate 1704 to lysine (E17~ in a patient with severe hemophilia A and proline 2300 to serine (p2300\_\_> S) in a patient with mild hemoph
