Abstract excerpt
We have applied non-radioactive polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-single-stranded conformation polymorphism (SSCP) to the detection of gene mutations causing Fabry disease. Nineteen of 22 known mutations were detected as electrophoretic mobility shifts on PCR-SSCP analysis. Then, DNA from newly diagnosed Japanese patients with the classical form of Fabry disease was subjected to PCR-SSCP analysis, and 4 novel...
