Abstract excerpt
We investigated the genetic mutations involved in Wilson's disease to improve prenatal genetic diagnosis and presymptomatic diagnosis. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to amplify the exons and exon-intron boundaries of the ATP7B gene in 35 Wilson's disease pedigrees. The PCR products were further analyzed by Sanger sequencing. Prenatal genetic diagnoses were performed by chorionic villus sampling...
