Glu274Lys/Gly309Arg Mutation of the Tissue‐Nonspecific Alkaline Phosphatase Gene in Neonatal Hypophosphatasia Associated with Convulsions
1 Feb 2002
Abstract excerpt
We describe a patient diagnosed with lethal perinatal hypophosphatasia with a unique clinical presentation of convulsions that responded to vitamin B6. Genomic DNA sequence analysis of the tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP) gene revealed two missense mutations: a G-to-A transition resulting in a Glu to Lys at codon 274 (E274K), and a G-to-C transversion resulting in a Gly to Arg at codon 309...
