A candidate gene for familial Mediterranean fever.

Nature genetics - 1 Sept 1997

Abstract excerpt

Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by attacks of fever and serositis. In this paper, we define a minimal co-segregating region of 60 kb containing the FMF gene (MEFV) and identify four different transcript units within this region. One of these transcripts encodes a new protein (marenostrin) related to the ret-finger protein and to butyrophllin. Four conservative...
