A representative multicenter cystic fibrosis (CF) mutation analysis on about half of all known cystic fibrosis patients of the 5 East German LΓ€nder is reported. Analyses for 17 mutations, among them Delta F508, R553X, G542X, S549R,N,I, G551D, S1255X, R347P,H, and Y122X, were performed. As expected,
Cystic fibrosis is a common, fatal disorder caused by abnormalities in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. CFTR encodes a chloride channel that regulates secretion in many exocrine tissues. The presentation of cystic fibrosis is highly variable as measured by the age
The N1303K mutation was identified in the second nucleotide binding fold of the cystic fibrosis (CF) gene last year. We have gathered data from laboratories throughout Europe and the United States of America in order to estimate its frequency and to attempt to characterise the clinical manifestation
