Association between genotype and clinical manifestation of the most spread monogenic hereditary disorders

Summary

Genotype-phenotype association study was performed in Ukraine with CF, PKU, SMA and fragile X syndrome patients. The data of correlation between some mutations in CFTR, PAH, SMN, FMR-1 genes and special phenotype manifestations were obtained. A possible role of other modulating genes involved in CF, PKU, SMA and fragile X syndrome pathogenesis is discussed. The data obtained suggest that HFE-1 gene may be a modificating factor of phenotype manifestations in CF patients.
