Abstract excerpt
The mutant frequency at the hprt locus in circulating T-lymphocytes has been determined in 16 ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) patients, 19 A-T heterozygotes and 12 A-T sibs. Mutant frequency in the A-T patients is highly significantly elevated as a group, even when the relatively poor cloning efficie...
