Abstract excerpt
In the present study, through PCR amplification and direct sequencing of mutation "hotspots", we were able to identify two novel mutations in the human iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) gene in two patients from unrelated families with mucopolysaccharidosis type II(MPS II). The novel mutation IVS 6 -1g-->a affected the 3' splice acceptor site of intron 6, and was predicted to result in exon skipping. The novel mutation...
