Abstract excerpt
Neurofibromatosis type-1 (NF-1) is an autosomal dominant disorder, caused by mutations in the NF-1 gene. Mutation analysis in the NF-1 gene is complicated by the large size of the gene, the high mutation rate, and the presence of pseudogenes. By means of the polymerase chain reaction, we have amplified 70% of the NF-1 coding sequence using reverse transcribed mRNA and genomic DNA from 25 unrelated Scottish...
