Abstract excerpt
We identified four novel mutant alleles of the insulin receptor gene in three patients with genetic syndromes associated with insulin resistance. Two mutant alleles of the insulin receptor gene were identified in a patient with the Rabson-Mendenhall syndrome who was a compound heterozygote for a...
