Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To detect potential mutations of OTC gene in a male infant affected with ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency. METHODS: Genomic DNA were isolated from peripheral blood samples of family members and 100 healthy individuals. Potential mutations of the 10 exons of OTC gene were screened with PCR and Sanger sequencing. RESULTS: A homozygous missense mutation c.917G>C in exon 9, which results in p.R306T,...
