Frequent recurrent mutations of the human dystrophin gene lead to Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies. Although the approximately 2.5 Mb size of the gene may form a large target for mutations it is not clear to date which mechanisms promote the observed high frequency of spontaneous mutants (1

Fifty to eighty percent of Rett syndrome (RTT) cases have point mutations in the gene encoding methyl-CpG-binding protein-2 (MECP2). A fraction of MECP2 negative classical RTT patients has large heterozygous deletions. Robust Dosage PCR (RD-PCR) assays were developed as a rapid, convenient and accur

We describe a novel type of complex genetic rearrangement in the iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) gene of a severely affected MPSII patient. Southern blot analysis indicated an intragenic deletion of exons 5 and 6. The deletion spans 5,581 bp. Sequencing of the deletion junctions revealed a complex rearr
