Abstract excerpt
Generalized resistance to thyroid hormone (GRTH) is an inherited syndrome of reduced tissue responsiveness to thyroid hormone. Point mutations in the human thyroid hormone receptor-beta (hTR beta) gene of these patients, causing single amino acid substitutions, appear be different in unrelated individuals affected by the same syndrome. To localize mutations in the hTR beta gene, GC-clamped DNA fragments from...
