  Abstract:
   
  
    
      | 
	We report the detection of four new mutations in the ataxia telangiectasia gene (ATM). Reverse-transcribed RNA extracted from cultured cells was analysed for mutations by polymerase chain reaction amplifications and restriction endonuclease fingerprinting. Three deletions and a base substitution are described. The deletions reported here would result in severe disruptions of the ATM gene product by leading either to a protein truncation (a 4-bp deletion) or the loss of stretches of 53 and 58 amino acids (a 159-bp deletion and a 174-bp deletion, respectively); whereas the base substitution would lead to an amino acid change from a highly conserved glycine to an arginine residue.
