25 Oct 2012
Abstract excerpt
Familial Pseudohyperkalemia (FP) is a dominant red cell trait characterized by increased serum [K(+)] in whole blood stored at or below room temperature, without additional hematological abnormalities. Functional gene mapping and sequencing analysis of the candidate genes within the 2q35-q36 critical interval identified-in 20 affected individuals among three multigenerational FP families-two novel heterozygous...
