Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: To determine whether malignant hyperthermia (MH) susceptibility in a Canadian pedigree is associated with a mutation in the ryanodine receptor subtype 1 (RYR1) gene, the complete RYR1 transcript obtained from the leukocytes of one MH-susceptible family member was sequenced, using a newly developed protocol. METHODS: RNA was extracted from leukocytes and converted into complementary DNA. Overlapping...
