Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome (PJS) is thought to be caused by mutations occurring in the widely expressed serine/threonine protein kinase named LKB1/STK11. Recent work has led to the identification of four mutants (R304W, I177N, K175-D176del, L263fsX286) and two novel aberrant LKB1/STK11 cDNA isoforms (r2
The SLC12A3 gene encodes the thiazide-sensitive Na-Cl co-transporter (NCCT) expressed in the apical membrane of the distal convoluted tubule of the kidney. Inactivating mutations of this gene are responsible for Gitelman syndrome (GS), a disorder inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. We searche
The authors regret that there was an error in Table 2 on Page 3 of the original article. In patient 2, the substitution 2979C>T is not correct. It should be 2979G>A, just as found in patient 12 who has the identical mutation.
Crigler-Najjar syndrome (CN), caused by deficiency of UGT isoform 1A1 (UGT1A1), is characterized by severe unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. In this study we have analyzed 19 CN patients diagnosed in The Netherlands (18) and in Belgium (1), and have identified 14 different UGT1A1 mutations, four of w
