Am J Hum Genet . 1997 Feb; 60(2):366-72. PMID: 9012409
Human orythrocytes that are homozygous for the Duarte enzyme variant of galactosemia (D/D) have a characteristic isoform on isoelectric focusing and 50% reduction in galactose-1-phosphate uridyltransferase (GALT) enzyme activity. The...

Longo N, Langley S, Griffin L, Elsas L
J Clin Endocrinol Metab . 1995 May; 80(5):1496-501. PMID: 7538143
Leprechaunism is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the insulin receptor gene and characterized by intrauterine and postnatal growth restriction, abnormal glucose homeostasis, and severe insulin-resistance. Here we...

Am J Hum Genet . 1995 Mar; 56(3):630-9. PMID: 7887416
We describe a stratagem for identifying new mutations in the galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase (GALT) gene. GALT enzyme activity and isoforms were defined in erythrocytes from probands and their first-degree relatives....

J Clin Endocrinol Metab . 1994 Sep; 79(3):799-805. PMID: 8077364
Mutations in the insulin receptor gene cause the severe insulin-resistant syndromes leprechaunism and Rabson-Mendenhall syndrome. There is no accepted therapy for these inherited conditions. Here we report the results of...
