Abstract excerpt
Dominant mutations in the erythropoietin receptor (EPOR) gene account for only about 15% of cases of primary congenital erythrocytosis. To search for molecular alterations in patients with this disorder. Sixteen patients with Epo <10 mU/mL were studied, 3 were related. Analyses included EPOR and JAK2 gene sequencing, quantitative PRV-1 RT-PCR, and erythroid colony assays. A novel sporadic EPOR 1453G->A...
