Abstract excerpt
Mutations of the thyroid hormone receptor (TR) beta 1 gene have recently been detected in several unrelated families with generalized resistance to thyroid hormone (GRTH). We now report a novel point mutation in the TR beta 1 gene in a case of a Korean-Japanese kindred. The intracellular localization and the amount of TR proteins were considered to be normal by the immunocytochemical study of cultured skin...
