Abstract excerpt

The nucleotide and amino acid substitutions leading to the only known functional variant of human serum transferrin have been characterized by sequencing of a peptide produced by cyanogen bromide digestion and genomic PCR coupled with cycle sequencing, respectively. There is an amino acid substitution at position 394 (Gly-->Arg) resulting from a mutational transition, G-->A, in the first nucleotide of the codon...
