We describe in this report the clinical, biochemical, and molecular features of a Saudi infant with hepatocerebral MDS secondary to a novel homozygous mutation in the MPV17 gene. An automated sequencing of the nuclear MPV17 gene was performed. The coding region (7 exons) of the MPV17 gene was amplified using an M13-tagged intronic primer and screened by direct sequencing of the PCR-amplified products (GenBank...
