Abstract excerpt
Metabolic bone disorders in children frequently are heritable, but the expanding number of genes associated with these conditions makes it difficult to perform molecular diagnosis. In the present study, we therefore evaluated a semiconductor (SC)-based sequencing system for this purpose. A total of 65 DNA samples were analyzed comprising 24 samples from patients with 27 known pathogenic mutations, 6 samples from...
