Abstract excerpt
By performing extensive scanning of whole coding and flanking sequences of the cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, we had previously identified the CF-causing mutations in black South African patients of different ethnic groups suspected with the disease. Of ten samples analyzed, there were six remaining that had either one (n = 2) or two (n = 4) unidentified CFTR alleles that...
