Abstract excerpt
PCR conditions were optimized to amplify the COL4A5 cDNA from lymphoblasts and kidney tissue. Sequencing of the COL4A5 mRNA isolated from the kidney of an Alport syndrome patient revealed two differences with the published sequence. One divergence, the insertion of an 18 bp sequence between exon...
