Abstract excerpt
A novel mutation, a C-->T transition at nucleotide 455 of the coding sequence of the ARSA gene, was found in a control individual during the search for metachromatic leukodystrophy mutations. Its distribution in three different populations was examined. The frequency of the T allele was 0.058, 0....
