Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE To detect potential mutation in a Chinese family affected with beta-ureidopropinoase deficiency. METHODS Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples. All exons and flanking intron regions of the UPB1 gene were amplified by PCR and detected by direct sequencing. RESULTS A homozygous mutation c.977G>A was identified in exon 9 of the UPB1 gene in the proband. Both parents of the proband had...
