[Disease-causing mutations versus neutral polymorphism: use of bioinformatics and DNA diagnosis].

Abstract excerpt

Molecular genetic diagnostics is available for increasing number of genetically determined diseases. A wide spectrum of mutations can be detected by laboratory methods. A mutation can be defined as a change in a specific DNA sequence when compared with the reference sequence published in the gene database. However, in some cases it is difficult to distinguish if the detected sequence variant is a causal mutation...
