Abstract excerpt
An analysis of five of the most common cystic fibrosis (CF) mutations worldwide (delta F-508, R-553X, G-551D, N-1303K and G-542X) was performed in 36 Chilean patients. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of the DNA followed by allele specific restriction enzyme analysis was used for detection. The overall frequencies of the mutations in the chromosomes analyzed were 29.2% for delta F-508 and 4.2% for...
