Abstract excerpt
Single cases of the four novel splice site mutations 1525-1 G-->A (intron 9), 3601-2 A-->G (intron 18), 3850-3 T-->G (intron 19), and 4374 + 1 G-->T (intron 23) were detected in the CFTR gene of cystic fibrosis patients of Indo-Iranian, Turkish, Polish, and German descent. The nucleotide substitutions at the +1, -1, and -2 positions all destroy splice sites and lead to severe disease alleles associated with...
