Abstract excerpt
We describe four novel sequence variants in the Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein (MOG) gene. A total of six sequence variants of the MOG gene were identified in eleven out of 44 ALD patients investigated: G15A, CTC repeat in exon 1, Val142Leu, Val145Ile, 551+68A-->G and 551+77C-->T. Screening studies demonstrated that all these polymorphisms are present in 50 unaffected control male individuals of the same...
