We describe three delta-F508/G551S compound heterozygous siblings with a mild CF phenotype, characterized by mild chronic pulmonary disease, pancreatic sufficiency and increased sweat chloride levels. PCR-mediated site-directed mutagenesis detected the delta-F508 mutation on one allele, and the G551S mutation was detected by SSCP and sequence analysis of exon 11. Two previously described sisters who were...
