TTR exon scanning in peripheral neuropathies.

Neuromuscular disorders : NMD - 1 May 1995

Torres M de F, Almeida M do R, Saraiva M J

Abstract excerpt

Transthyretin (TTR) is a plasma protein in which most of the coding region is constituted of three exons, each one of approximately 200 bp. Several TTR variants have been reported in association with familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP) and the characterization of the mutations is crucial for understanding the process of amyloidogenesis. In order to simplify mutation screening and DNA sequencing studies, a...
