Detection of mutations in the COL4A5 gene by SSCP in X-linked Alport syndromeJ M Hertz
Department of Clinical Genetics, Aarhus University Hospital, Aarhus C, Denmark
Hum Mutat 18:141-8. 2001..Three de novo mutations were found, two of which were paternal and one of maternal origin...
[The molecular genetic background of hereditary craniosynostoses and chondrodysplasias]J M Hertz
Arhus Universitetshospital, Arhus Kommunehospital, klinisk genetisk afdeling og neurokirurgisk afdeling GS
Ugeskr Laeger 163:4862-7. 2001..The chondrodysplasias: achondroplasia, hypochondroplasia, and thanatophoric dysplasia are all caused by mutations in FGFR3...
A novel missense mutation (402C-->T) in exon 1 in the EDA gene in a family with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasiaJ M Hertz
Department of Clinical Genetics, Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark
Clin Genet 53:205-9. 1998..This mutation cosegregates with the disease in the family and is the first mutation described which affects the predicted transmembrane, hydrophobic domain of the protein...
MLPA and cDNA analysis improves COL4A5 mutation detection in X-linked Alport syndromeJ M Hertz
Department of Clinical Genetics, Aarhus University Hospital, Aarhus C, Denmark
Clin Genet 74:522-30. 2008..We found that the combination of cDNA and MLPA analysis improves the mutation detection rate in COL4A5 and that MLPA should be the first step in genetic testing for X-linked AS...
Low frequency of Parkin, Tyrosine Hydroxylase, and GTP Cyclohydrolase I gene mutations in a Danish population of early-onset Parkinson's DiseaseJ M Hertz
Department of Clinical Genetics, Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark
Eur J Neurol 13:385-90. 2006..In conclusion, homozygous, or compound heterozygous PARK2 mutations, and mutations in GCH1 and TH, are rare even in a population of PD patients with early-onset of the disease...
Alport syndrome in southern SwedenU Persson
Department of Nephrology, Lund University Hospital, Sweden
Clin Nephrol 64:85-90. 2005..The aim of the present investigation is to study the epidemiology of Alport syndrome in southern Sweden, to search for mutations in the COL4A5 gene and to estimate the mutation frequency...
Complete amino acid sequence of the human alpha 5 (IV) collagen chain and identification of a single-base mutation in exon 23 converting glycine 521 in the collagenous domain to cysteine in an Alport syndrome patientJ Zhou
Department of Biochemistry, University of Oulu, Finland
J Biol Chem 267:12475-81. 1992..The mutation changed the GGT codon of glycine 521 to cysteine. The same mutation was found in one allele of the female cousin. The results were confirmed by allele-specific hybridization analyses...
Cathepsin K gene mutations and 1q21 haplotypes in at patients with pycnodysostosis in an outbred populationA Haagerup
Institute of Human Genetics, Aarhus University, Denmark
Eur J Hum Genet 8:431-6. 2000..Founder effect, locus homogeneity, and allele heterogeneity regarding pycnodysostosis within this population are discussed. Finally, the first pregnancy and delivery described in a patient with pycnodysostosis is reported...
High mutation detection rate in the COL4A5 collagen gene in suspected Alport syndrome using PCR and direct DNA sequencingP Martin
Biocenter and Department of Biochemistry, University of Oulu, Finland
J Am Soc Nephrol 9:2291-301. 1998..It is concluded that PCR amplification and direct DNA sequencing of the promoter and exons is currently the best procedure to detect mutations in COL4A5 in Alport syndrome...
Early onset, non-progressive, mild cerebellar ataxia co-segregating with a familial balanced translocation t(8;20)(p22;q13)J M Hertz
J Med Genet 41:e25. 2004
X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. Genetic and dental findings in 67 Danish patients from 19 familiesM O Lexner
Department of Pediatric Dentistry and Clinical Genetics, University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen, N, Denmark
Clin Genet 74:252-9. 2008..However, in two female carriers with pronounced clinical symptoms, in whom the parental origin of each allele was known, we observed that mainly the normal allele was inactivated...

Department of Paediatrics, Second University of Naples, Naples, Italy
J Med Genet 40:e71. 2003
