(V392G) This mutation was detected by heteroduplex analysis in one chromosome of 21 year-old East Indian CF patient, whose other CF mutation was unknown. The patient was presented with high sweat chloride (125), pancreatic sufficiency and moderate lung disease (27 July 1997).

This mutation was also reported by Larder et al (5 August 1997) who found the mutation by DGGE analysis and identified by direct DNA sequencing. The mutation was seen in homozygous form in a Pakistani CF patient on one occa sion, in over 200 non-[delta]F508 chromosome screened. The patient was referred by the Yorkshire Regional DNA Laboratory at Leeds (UK). The DGGE primers were supplied by Pr. Michel Goossens on behalf of the European Community Concerted Action for the Co -ordination of Cystic Fibrosis Research and Therapy.

(R1422W) This possible mutation was found by DGGE and identified by DNA sequencing in a CF patient from Southern France. The patient carries [delta]F508 and D993Y. No parental DNA was available at the time to determine with which allele R1422W was asso ciated. The mutation destroys a Fnu4HI restriction site.
(-94G->T) This presumed promoter mutation was found by DGGE and identified by DNA sequencing in a CF patient from South Africa. No other mutation was detected for this patient. It destroys an AvaII restriction site.

It was absent in 120 control chromosomes, in 102 chromosomes of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease patients and in 46 chromosomes of Diffuse Bronchiectasis patients.

S434X C to G at 1433 9 Ser to Stop at 434 (need info) (need info)
(Apr 02, 1998)
Note:
(S434X) The mutation was found in exon 9 of the CFTR gene in a young boy (1 year) heterozygote for [delta]F508. He was diagnosed at birth after detection of a meconial peritonite with echography at 27 SA. Direct sequencing of exon 20 revealed a C to G su bstitution at nucleotide position 1433 that alters the amino acid sequence from Serine to Stop codon at position 434 (S434X) in the CFTR protein.

(525delT) We would like to report the new mutation (525 del T) detected in one Yugoslav CF family. The mutation was detected in a CF patient (N1303K/525delT) and in the mother of the affected child (525 del T/N). The methods applied for detecting and def ining the 525delT mutation were: DGGE of exon 4 of CFTR gene and subsequent automatic sequencing.
