Abstract excerpt
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by different mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. The frequency of the major mutation (delta F508) in the Hungarian population is 64%. To identify other common mutations in CF families from Hungary, 30 non-delta F508 CF chromosomes were analyzed for selected mutations in exon 11 (G551D, R553X, G542X), intron...
