Lee-Chen G J, Wang T R
Abstract excerpt
The complementary and genomic DNA segments of the alpha-L-iduronidase gene from two Chinese mucopolysaccharidosis type I Hurler/Scheie (MPS IH/S) patients were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and DNA sequencing was done to study their molecular lesions. Patient W3 has heterozygous mutations; the maternal allele has M1I (G to A transition in the initiation codon ATG) and the paternal allele has Y343X...
