Abstract excerpt
The replicated portion of PKD1, which comprises nearly 70% of the length of the gene, is predicted to harbor at least 85% of the mutations present in affected autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease type 1 pedigrees. The relative paucity of reported mutations involving this segment is attributable to the significant technical challenges posed by the genomic structure of the gene. Previous genomic DNA-based...
