Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To screen for potential mutations in an ethnic Han Chinese family from Shanxi with hereditary multiple exostoses. METHODS: Polymerase chain reaction and DNA sequencing were used to screen potential mutations in EXT1 and EXT2 genes. RESULTS: For EXT1 gene, two synonymous mutations (P477P and E587E), three intronic mutations (c.1537 -48A>G, c.1721 +203A>G and c.1722 -103C>G) were detected. For EXT2 gene,...
