The major allele of the alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferase gene: seven novel mutations causing primary hyperoxaluria type 1.

Abstract excerpt

We describe 7 novel mutations occurring on the major allele of the human AGT gene in patients with primary hyperoxaluria type 1, an autosomal recessive disease resulting from a deficiency of the liver peroxisomal enzyme alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferase (AGT; EC 2.6.1.44). These mutations include 3 small deletions, 570delG, 744delC, and 983_988del, two splice junction mutations, IVS7-1G-->C and IVS8+1G-->T, and...
