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,
The entire NF1 coding region was analyzed for mutations in a panel of 108 unrelated Italian NF1 patients. Using PTT, SSCP, and DNA sequencing, we found 10 mutations which have never been reported before. Clinical diagnosis of NF1 was established according to the NIH consensus criteria in 100 individ
