Identification of two variant short chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase alleles, each containing a different point mutation in a patient with short chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency.

Abstract excerpt

Two distinct mutant alleles of the precursor (p) short chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (SCAD) gene were identified in a SCAD-deficient patient (YH2065) using the polymerase chain reaction to amplify cDNA synthesized from total RNA from her fibroblasts. Cells from this patient had previously been shown to synthesize a labile variant SCAD in contrast to the normal stability of variant SCADs in two other SCAD-deficient...
