Abstract excerpt
A new 18 bp insertion mutation in the gene for the alpha subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1 alpha) was found in a female patient with congenital lactic acidaemia. Cultured skin fibroblasts and Epstein-Barr virus-transformed lymphoblastoid cells from this patient showed decreased and normal pyr...
