A Novel Activating Mutation in Calcium-Sensing Receptor Gene Associated with a Family of Autosomal Dominant Hypocalcemia1
1 Jan 1999
Abstract excerpt
Autosomal dominant hypocalcemia (ADH), caused by activating mutations of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR), is characterized by hypocalcemia with an inappropriately low concentration of PTH. Among 11 missense mutations of CaSR reported to date in patients with ADH or sporadic hypocalcemia, functional properties of 8 mutant CaSRs were characterized. Here, we describe a novel mutation of CaSR and its functional...
