Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To research on the reliability of diagnosing achondroplasia (ACH) on single cell level and to provide a basis for preimplantation genetic diagnosis(PGD). METHODS: The high-frequency mutation region G380R of fibroblast growth factor receptor 3(FGFR3) gene was amplified by nested-PCR with single lymphocyte and single blastomere. The products of PCR were digested by restriction enzyme Bfm I, then the...
