Abstract excerpt
We have previously screened the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene and identified new disease-causing mutations. C225R and R1066C are both associated with pancreatic insufficiency, but the former mutation is associated with mild and unusual lung disease, whereas the latter is associated with severe lung disease. In the present study, we expressed these mutants heterologously in HeLa...
