Rare CFTR mutation 1525-1G>A in a Pakistani patient.

Abstract excerpt

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is rare in non-Caucasian populations, and in such populations little is known about the spectrum of mutations and polymorphisms in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance (CFTR) gene. We report the detection of a very rare CFTR mutation 1525-1G>A in intron 9 in a 5-year-old Pakistani child with typical clinical features of CF.
