Abstract excerpt

Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is a recessive inherited disorder affecting Sephardic Jews, Arabs, Armenians and Turks. The gene responsible for FMF was recently cloned and several disease-associated mutations have been described. We have evaluated seven MEFV mutations in 460 chromosomes of 230 unrelated patients with FMF living in Turkey, using PCR methods. The M694V allele accounted for 43.5% of the alleles...
