Abstract excerpt
Since the identification of the Lowe's oculocerebrorenal syndrome gene, more than 100 distinct OCRL mutations have been observed. Germline mosaicism has rarely been detected in Lowe families; however, the presence of mosaic mutations, in particular triple mosaicism, may often remain undiagnosed. In the course of OCRL analysis in a Polish family, the index case showed a hemizygous nucleotide transition (c.1736A>G,...
