Aberrantly spliced mRNAs of the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A lyase (HL) gene with a donor splice-site point mutation produce hereditary HL deficiency

A novel point mutation in the 3-hydroxy-3methyl-glutaryl coenzyme A lyase gene was found in a Turkish patient with homozygous 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acidemia. Amplification by RT-PCR of the mRNA using a six different pairs of oligonucleotides produced no differences in four of the fragments ampl...
