Abstract excerpt
An asymmetrical reduction in the levels of the insulin receptor mRNA transcribed from one allele was reported in some patients with severe insulin resistance and non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). To detect this abnormality, we designed the less laborious method; Allele-specific oligonucleotide hybridization of the amplified mRNA (cDNA) by using silent polymorphisms in the insulin receptor gene...
