Mutant endoglin in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia type 1 is transiently expressed intracellularly and is not a dominant negative.
15 Nov 1997
Abstract excerpt
Endoglin (CD105), a component of the TGF-beta 1 receptor complex, is the target gene for the dominantly inherited vascular disorder hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia type 1 (HHT1). We have identified a novel endoglin splice site mutation, leading to an in-frame deletion of exon 3, in a new-born from a family with HHT. Expression of normal and mutant endoglin proteins was analyzed in umbilical vein endothelial...
