Abstract excerpt
Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase deficiency is an inheritable disorder of gluconeogenesis. Sequence analysis of the cDNA of the fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase mRNA isolated from monocytes from a girl with this disease and her consanguineous parents revealed that the patient and her parents were a homozygote and heterozygotes for an insertion of one G residue at G957GGGG961, respectively. This mutation resulted in...
