A novel mutation of the signal peptide of the preproparathyroid hormone gene associated with autosomal recessive familial isolated hypoparathyroidism.

Abstract excerpt

We report a novel mutation of the signal peptide of the prepro-PTH gene associated with autosomal recessive familial isolated hypoparathyroidism. The proposita presented with neonatal hypocalcemic seizures. Serum calcium was 1.5 mmol/L (normal, 2.0-2.5); phosphate was 3.6 mmol/L (normal, 0.9-1.5). She was born to consanguineous parents.
