Abstract excerpt
We have identified the mutation in a phosphoglycerate kinase variant (PGK-Matsue) associated with severe enzyme deficiency, congenital nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia, and mental disorders. The mRNA coding for PGK was reverse transcribed and amplified by the polymerase chain reaction. Nucleotide sequencing of the variant cDNA showed a point mutation, a T/A----C/G transition in exon 3 of the variant gene. No other...
