Abstract excerpt
We previously mapped a gene for severe pediatric gastroesophageal reflux disease ( GERD1) to a 9-cM interval on chromosome 13q14. In this report, we present the results of DNA sequencing and allelic association analyses that were done in an attempt to clone the GERD1 gene. Using a candidate transcript approach, we screened affected individuals for mutations in all transcribed regions of all genes, putative genes,...
