Abstract excerpt

Here, we report a genetic study of an extended family of Chinese ancestry with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), with one of the affected members also concurrently diagnosed with IgA nephropathy (IgAN). By genome-wide linkage analysis and subsequent sequencing, we identified an S85W muta...
