Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the characteristics of gene mutations of connexin 32 exon 2 in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease in Chinese patients. METHODS: Screening for connexin 32 gene mutation was conducted in 6 unrelated CMT1 patients without duplication and 10 unrelated CMT2 patients. Mobility shift of exon 2 was analyzed by SSCP and further confirmed by sequencing. The PCR products were cut by appropriate restricted...
