Abstract excerpt
We describe three novel deletions in the human AGT gene in three patients with primary hyperoxaluria type 1, an autosomal recessive disease resulting from a deficiency of the liver peroxisomal enzyme, alanine glyoxylate aminotransferase (AGT; EC 2.6.1.44). A deletion of 4 nucleotides in the exon 6/intron 6 splice junction (679-IVS6+2delAAgt) is expected to cause missplicing. It would also code for a K227E...
