We have identified three different point mutations in the coding region of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Each mutation segregates with the disease in two- or three-generation pedigrees and is not found on the normal chromosome of any documented cystic fibrosis carrier. One of the mutations is found in two independent families that contain at least one individual with a mild...
