Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To identify the pathogenic mutation in a Chinese family with Alport syndrome. METHODS: Blood samples were collected from the members of the family. Direct DNA sequence analysis of the entire coding region and exon-intron boundaries of the COL4A5 gene was performed, and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis was used to confirm the sequencing results and to test the mutation in all the...
