Sequence analysis of the fragile X trinucleotide repeat: implications for the origin of the fragile X mutation
TL;DR: Results suggest that evolution of fragile X full mutations could involve 4 definable stages: 1) ancestral events leading to the formation of predisposing alleles which have large total repeat length (e.g. between 35 to 50) but no AGG or 1 AGG; 2) gradual slippage of these predisposingalleles to small premutations (S alleles); 3) conversion from S alleles to larger premutations; 4) massive expansion from a Z allele to a full mutation
Journal ArticleDOI
Iron overload in cirrhosis : HFE genotypes and outcome after liver transplantation
David J. Brandhagen,William Alvarez,Terry M. Therneau,Kent E. Kruckeberg,Stephen N. Thibodeau,Jurgen Ludwig,Michael K. Porayko +6 more
TL;DR: Patients with severe hepatic explant iron overload undergoing LTx have a reduced survival compared to liver transplant recipients withoutExplant iron excess, and HFE gene mutations were uncommon in patients with hepaticExplant hemosiderosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
The frequency of short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase gene variants in the US population and correlation with the C4-acylcarnitine concentration in newborn blood spots
Narasimhan Nagan,Kent E. Kruckeberg,Angela L. Tauscher,Karen Snow Bailey,Piero Rinaldo,Dietrich Matern +5 more
TL;DR: It is found that the allele frequency of the 625G>A variant was significantly higher (22%) than that of the 511C>T variant and a previously unreported variant, IVS 5 (-10) C>T, was identified in three African-American newborns.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pyrosequencing Technology as a Method for the Diagnosis of Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 2
TL;DR: Pyrosequencing technology offers an accurate, nonisotopic, simple, and rapid method for the analysis of DNA from patients suspected of having MEN2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Substitution of 3′-Phosphate Cap with a Carbon-Based Blocker Reduces the Possibility of Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer Probe Failure in Real-Time PCR Assays
Kendall W. Cradic,Jason E. Wells,Lindsay H. Allen,Kent E. Kruckeberg,Ravinder J. Singh,Stefan K.G. Grebe +5 more
TL;DR: The studies revealed that alternative terminating groups may be a preferable option to 3′-phosphate blocking chemistry, and revealed an additional mechanism for FRET probe failure: loss of the phosphate cap from the 3′ end of a probe.
