Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disease that primarily affects non-Ashkenazi Jews, Armenians, Arabs, and Turks. The FMF (MEFV) gene responsible for the disease has been recently identified. Four missense mutations in exon 10 of the FMF gene seem to account...
