Abstract excerpt
We studied family members of a large kindred expressing both familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH) and neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism (NSHPT) and found, by PCR amplification of the extracellular calcium-sensing receptor (CASR) gene exons and flanking intronic sequences, that FHH individuals were heterozygous for a g to t substitution in the last nucleotide of intron 2 (IVS2-1G>T). Defects in messenger...
