| Gene |
HEXA |
| Chromosomal Location |
15q23-q24 |
| Allelic Variant 1 |
606869.0001; TAY-SACHS DISEASE |
| Identified Mutation |
c.1274_1277dupTATC; Myerowitz and Costigan [J Biol Chem 263: 18587 (1988)] demonstrated that the most frequent DNA lesion in Tay-Sachs disease of Ashkenazi Jews is a 4-bp insertion in exon 11. This mutation introduces a premature termination signal in exon 11, resulting in a deficiency of mRNA. This is the most frequent defect underlying Tay-Sachs disease in the Ashkenazi Jewish population. This mutation is alternatively designated 1277TATC; see 272800.0054. |
