摘要
We screened growth differentiation factor 9 coding regions for mutations in a Chinese sample of 100 women with premature ovarian failure and discovered four novel single-nucleotide polymorphisms: c.436C>T (p.Arg146Cys), c.588A>C (silent), c.712A>G (p.Thr238Ala), and c.1283G>C (p.Ser428Thr). Nonsynonymous single-nucleotide polymorphisms c.436C>T and c. 1283G>C were also detected in the control population. The c.712A>G perturbation results in a missense mutation (p.Thr238Ala) and was not present in any of 96 controls. Substitution of the hydrophobic amino acid residue alanine for hydrophilic threonine may disrupt growth differentiation factor 9 function.
