Mutation rates for X-linked recessive diseases have so far been estimated indirectly by postulating an equilibrium between the loss of defective genes caused by the low reproductive fitness of affected males and the gain resulting from new mutations. Here, for the first time, we directly estimate bo

In the course of analysing mutation in the factor IX gene from 200 haemophilia B patients in Sweden and the UK, we have identified one patient with a prepeptide missense mutation. He has severe, antigen negative haemophilia, and complete analysis of his coding sequence reveals a single base transver
## Abstract The central issues explored in this article are the importance of geographical location in explaining the attitudes of individuals, and the interplay between these attitudes and overt behaviour. The context is as follows: In the late 1990's, sick‐listings in Sweden underwent a substanti
The molecular characterization of two haemophilia B defects, Calgary 1 and Calgary 2, was carried out using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and direct dideoxy sequencing. It had been previously shown that the Calgary 1 mutation affects the 5' TaqI restriction site of exon VIII, whereas
