## Communicated by C. Thomas Caskey We have identified the mutations in the hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (hprt) gene in five patients with the Lesch Nyhan syndrome (LN) by direct sequencing of hprt cDNA and genomic DNA. Three of the mutations affect splicing of exons 1, 2, and 9, respec

We have determined the structure, at the nucleotide sequence level, of a duplication in the hprt gene in a patient with Lesch-Nyhan syndrome (LN). The duplication extends over exons 7 and 8 and approximately 1.8 kb of the surrounding hprt sequence. The duplication junction is localized within two Al
