[An analysis of mutations in the 7th, 10th and 11th exons and of the polymorphism of the 4 nucleotide tandem repeats from the 3' end of the 6th intron of the CFTR gene in families from Ukraine with a high risk of mucoviscidosis].

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in the CFTR gene have been screened in 110 families from Ukraine with high risk of cystic fibrosis. Deletion F508 was found in 121 (55%) of 220 CF alleles. Among the rest mutant alleles (with the absence of delta F508) six other mutations occurring in the 7th, 10th, 11th exons of the CFTR gene were screened. In this way, 5 CF alleles may be characterized: 1 allele with R334W (the 7th exon) 1 with 1677...
