## Myotonia congenita (MC) is a genetic disease characterized by mutations in the CLCN1 gene (OMIM\*118425) encoding the skeletal muscle voltage-gated chloride channel (ClC-1). Autosomal dominant and recessive forms are observed, characterized by impaired muscle relaxation after forceful contractio

Two novel mutations of the human CLCN1 chloride channel gene, c.592C>G (p.L198V) and c.2255A>G (p.K752R), are described, occurring coincidentally in the one myotonic patient. These individual mutations and a construct with both mutations in the one cDNA were transcribed and expressed in Xenopus oocy

Autosomal dominant myotonia congenita or Thomsen's disease (OMIM\* 160800) and autosomal recessive myotonia congenita or Becker's (OMIM\* 255700) are rare nondystrophic disorders due to allelic mutations of the muscle chloride channel gene, CLCN1. We have analysed all 24 exons of the CLCN1 gene, in
