Abstract excerpt
We describe here a new stop mutation at triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) position 145 in a Hungarian family for which the first mutation (240 Phe-->Leu) was published earlier. The entire genomic TPI locus (exons, introns and promoter) was sequenced and found to be identical in the two compound-heterozygote brothers. Both brothers have the same well-compensated level of non-spherocytic hemolytic anemia and very...
