Abstract excerpt
Gitelman's syndrome (GS) is a rare recessive disorder caused by mutations in the renal salt-handling genes SLC12A3 and CLCNKB. Our aim was to develop a next-generation sequencing (NGS) procedure for these genes based on two-tubes multiplex amplification of DNA pools and semiconductor sequencing with the Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine (PGM). We created one pool with DNA from 20 GS patients previously Sanger...
