  • Title: The incidence of delta F508 CF mutation, and associated haplotypes, in a sample of English CF families.
    Author: Watson EK, Mayall ES, Simova L, Thompson EM, Warner JO, Williamson R, Williams C.
    Journal: Hum Genet; 1990 Sep; 85(4):435-6. PubMed ID: 2210766.
    Abstract:
    Data are presented for delta F508 screening and KM19/XV2c haplotype analysis of 195 cystic fibrosis (CF) chromosomes from the British Caucasian population. We report the frequency of delta F508 in this group to be 80% and find pronounced disequilibrium between the deletion and the KM 2, XV 1 haplotype. Haplotype analysis of 71 normal chromosomes is also presented. We report one individual who had meconium ileus and who does not have the delta F508 mutation on either chromosome.
