Familial Mediterranean fever in two Bedouin families: mutation analysis and disease severity.

American journal of medical genetics - 5 Jun 2000

Press J, Shinar Y, Langevitz P, Livneh A, Pras M, Buskila D

Abstract excerpt

Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disease prevalent among non-Ashkenazi Jews, Armenians, Arabs, and Turks. The Bedouin are nomad Arab tribes residing in desert margins of the Middle East and Arabia. FMF is quite rare in Bedouins, and here we report on two Bedouin famili...
