Abstract excerpt
This study was designed to investigate the molecular basis and the correlation between genotype and phenotype in the southern Chinese patients with Wilson's disease (WD). Genotypes of the ATP7B gene in 73 WD patients were examined by denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) and DNA sequencing. A total of 38 different disease-causing mutations were identified, including 10 novel mutations:...
