Title: De novo mutation within the intron-exon junction in the PiZ allele of the alpha-1-antitrypsin gene. Author: Schwarzman AL, Kowalska A, Rujner J, Vlasov MS, Gaitskhoki VS. Journal: Hum Genet; 1992; 90(1-2):169-70. PubMed ID: 1427771. Abstract: A proband homozygous for the PiZ allele of the alpha-1-antitrypsin gene was found to be a heterozygous carrier of the additional nucleotide substitution (C-T) within the intron IV-exon V junction (position 9955 in intron IV, 3 bp upstream of its 3'-splice site). This mutation was not found in DNA from either the PiZ heterozygous parents or the PiZ homozygous brother of proband.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
