Original abstract
OBJECTIVE: To establish a technique platform of DJ-1 gene exon rearrangement using real-time PCR and to analyze DJ-1 gene exon rearrangement mutation in patients with autosomal recessive early-onset Parkinsonism(AREP). METHODS: Real-time PCR was used to analyze DJ-1 gene exon rearrangement mutation in 22 probands with AREP from unrelated Chinese Han families and 30 normal controls. RESULTS: We obtained satisfactory real-time PCR reaction conditions and primers of DJ-1 gene coding exons No exon rearrangement mutation in the DJ-1 gene is detected in this group. CONCLUSION: We established platform of DJ-1 gene exon rearrangement using real-time PCR. Exon rearrangement mutation in the DJ-1 gene is rare in Chinese patients with AREP.
