Abstract excerpt
Neurobromatosis type 1 (NF1) is one of the commonest genetic disorders in humans. The gene for NF1 was cloned in 1990. The protein encoded by the gene (neurofibromin) has extensive sequence homology with GTPase-activating protein (GAP). Despite screening the whole coding region of the gene for large and medium size rearrangements and approximately 40% of the coding region of the gene for small alterations, only...
