Abstract excerpt
Nucleotide sequence analysis of PCR fragments corresponding to the TSH-receptor (TSHR) amplified from genomic DNA collected from the four members of a family, two of which had Graves' thyrotoxicosis, revealed a nucleotide substitution in the first position of codon 36 of the TSH-receptor gene in the two patients. The nucleotide substitution was from G to C, leading to a 36D-->36H change (D36H) in the predicted...
