Identification of mutations in seven Chinese patients with X-linked chronic granulomatous disease.

Abstract excerpt

X-linked chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is due to mutations in the gp91phox gene on Xp21.1. Studies in white and Japanese X-linked CGD patients have shown mutations in nearly every exon. We studied the molecular defect of seven Chinese patients with X-linked CGD from six unrelated families. Mutations were located by single-strand conformation polymorphism and then defined by sequence analysis. The mutations...
