By using oligonucleotide hybridization, restriction endonuclease analysis and direct sequencing of amplified genomic DNA, we have been able to characterize 18 different mutations in the beta-globin genes of 161 beta-thalassemia homozygotes and 107 beta-thalassemia heterozygotes from Turkey (429 beta

beta-Thalassemia mutations in 71 chromosomes of Thai patients from the northeast, the middle and the south of the country were investigated using dot blot hybridization of PCR (polymerase chain reaction)-amplified DNA with allele-specific oligonucleotide probes. Eight different known molecular defec
This paper represents the first report of a codon 59 mutation in Ki-ras from a spontaneous human transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder. Point mutations have the potential to activate the ras genes if they occur in critical coding regions. These include the sequences of codons 12, 13, 59, 61 and
A total of 27 strains of Campylobacterjejuni (24 clinical strains and three laboratory strains) were examined for the presence of point mutations in the quinolone resistance determining region (QRDR) of gyrA gene by nonradioisotopic single-strand conformation polymorphism (non-RI SSCP) analysis with
Direct cDNA sequencing has been performed on asymmetrically amplified transcripts from the human porphobilinogen deaminase gene. Lymphocytes from 30 patients with acute intermittent porphyria were the source of mRNA; of the seven separate point mutations detected, three were silent, whereas four res
Enzymatic DNA amplification and direct DNA sequencing were used to detect a mutation in the tyrosinase gene of an albino patient. Single-base change could be detected by direct sequencing. This base change (G to A) is thought to result in an amino acid change (Arg to Gln) in tyrosinase of the patien
