Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The search for novel mutations in the ryanodine receptor subtype 1 (RYR1) gene causing malignant hyperthermia and central core disease is hampered by the fact that the gene contains 106 exons. Searching for novel mutations in complementary DNA (cDNA) requires an invasive muscle biopsy. Accordingly, an alternate source of RYR1 cDNA was sought for sequence analysis. METHODS: Leukocytes were isolated...
