Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To explore the molecular mechanism for a family with hereditary X-linked spondyloepiphysealdysplasia tarda (SEDT). METHODS: For 3 affected males and 2 obligate carrier females from the family, exons 3 to 6 of SEDL gene were amplified with PCR and sequenced. RESULTS: In the three patients, a deletional mutation (c.267_271delAAGAC) in exon 5 has been identified, which has caused frameshift of the protein...
