Identification of a point mutation in the thyrotropin receptor of the hyt/hyt hypothyroid mouse.
1 Feb 1994
Abstract excerpt
The hyt/hyt hypothyroid mouse has an autosomal recessive, fetal-onset, severe hypothyroidism related to TSH hyporesponsiveness and associated with elevated TSH. Our previous work has suggested that the hypothyroidism and TSH hyporesponsiveness may result from a mutation in the hyt/hyt TSH receptor (TSHr) of the thyroid gland. Based on DNA sequencing of the entire coding region of the TSHr gene from the wild-type...
