Title: A nonsense mutation at Arg-1947 in the NF1 gene in a case of neurofibromatosis type 1 in a Korean patient. Author: Park KC, Choi HO, Park KH, Kim KH, Eun HC. Journal: J Hum Genet; 2000; 45(2):84-5. PubMed ID: 10721668. Abstract: We report a case of neurofibromatosis (NF) 1 presenting as a C-to-T transition changing an Arg-1947 codon to a stop codon. Because this mutation has been described in multiple Caucasian and Japanese families, the codon CGA for Arg-1947 in the NF1 gene is considered to be a hotspot for mutation in neurofibromatosis type 1 in all ethnic groups.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
