Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by at least 750 different mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. The frequency of the most common mutation (DF508) in Brazilian patients of European origin is 47%. To determine the frequency of 4 other common CF mutations (G542X, G551D, R553X, and N1303K) in Brazilian patients of European origin, we used direct polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of DNA obtained from dried blood spots on Guthrie cards. The DNA came from 247 non-DF508 chromosomes from 172 Brazilian CF patients ascertained from 5 different states of Brazil. The results show that the 4 mutations account for 17% of the non-DF508 alleles and only 9% of the total num...
