Diagnosis OMIM - Prenatal Diagnosis

Martin et al. (1996) performed prenatal diagnosis in 2 subsequent pregnancies in a large consanguineous affected family, using EcoRV restriction digestion. One showed that the fetus was heterozygous and the other showed that the ...

Clinical Description OMIM The intestinal monosaccharide transporter deficiency known as glucose/galactose malabsorption (GGM) produces a clinical picture indistinguishable from that of intestinal disaccharidase deficiency (222900). In GGM, fructose and xylose are absorbed normally. The disorder manifests itself within the first weeks of ...
Molecular genetics OMIM Turk et al. (1991) identified a missense mutation (182380.0001) in 2 related patients with glucose/galactose malabsorption. Martin et al. (1996) screened 30 patients for mutations in the SGLT1 gene (182380) and used a heterologous expression system to link the ...
