Alport syndrome is a progressive renal disease leading to chronic renal failure, which often is accompanied by sensorineural deafness and ophthalmological signs in the form of anterior lenticonus. The X-linked form of the disease is caused by mutations in the COL4A5 gene encoding the a5-chain of typ

To refine the genetic and physical mapping of the locus for Alport syndrome (ATS), 22 X-chromosome restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) markers that fall between Xq21.3 and Xq25 were tested for genetic linkage with the disease and also mapped with respect to a series of physical breakpoin

## Abstract The uses of experimental chimeras to transmit lethal genes are discussed. As an example, the X‐linked lethal mutation __jp__ was genetically transmitted by a chimeric male. This male produced abnormal offspring when bred to __jpl__ + and __msd/__ + females. Thus, allelism of the mutatio

We present the first report of prenatal diagnosis of X-linked hyper-IgM syndrome by PCR-mediated site directed mutagenesis (PSM) in a woman known to carry the Q220X mutation in the CD40L gene. Using the simple PSM assay, the Q220X mutation was identified by chorionic villous sampling (CVS) at 11 wee
