Mutations in the gene encoding fibrillin-1 (FBN1) cause Marfan syndrome (MFS) and other related connective tissue disorders. In this study we performed SSCP to analyze all 65 exons of the FBN1 gene in 76 patients presenting with classical MFS or related phenotypes. We report 7 missense mutations, 3

Mucolipidosis type III (MLIII) is an autosomal recessive disorder affecting lysosomal hydrolase trafficking. In a study of 10 patients from seven families with a clinical phenotype and enzymatic diagnosis of MLIII, six novel GNPTG gene mutations were identified. These included missense (p.T286M) and

Mutational analysis of the GNPTAB gene was performed in 46 apparently unrelated patients with mucolipidosis IIα/β or IIIα/β, characterized by the mistargeting of multiple lysosomal enzymes as a consequence of a UDP-GlcNAc-1-phosphotransferase defect. The GNPTAB mutational spectrum comprised 25 disti
