Abstract excerpt
Mutations in Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) gene result in X linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA). Using Single Strand Conformation Polymorphism (SSCP) followed by direct sequencing 21 mutations were found in 27 patients with an XLA phenotype from 21 unrelated families. We identified 13 novel and 8 known mutations: seven missense (R288W, R544G, P566S, K430E; K374N, L512P, R544S), 5 nonsense (Q196X, Y361X, L249X,...
