Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Hereditary pancreatitis is associated with at least 2 mutations in the cationic trypsinogen gene. The purpose of the present study is to test the utility of T4 endonuclease VII for the detection of cationic trypsinogen R117H mutations. In addition, the possibility of screening for R117H, N21I, and A8V mutations in a single 2.2-kb polymerase chain reaction (PCR) product using T4 endonuclease VII was...
