Abstract excerpt
We surveyed Delta1-pyrroline 5-carboxylate dehydrogenase genes from four patients with hyperprolinemia type II using RT-PCR amplification, genomic PCR amplification and direct sequencing. We found four mutant alleles, two with frameshift mutations [A7fs(-1) and G521fs(+1)] and two with missense mutations (S352L and P16L). To test the functional consequences of three of these, we expressed them in a...
