Characterization of Six Missense Mutations in the Tissue-Nonspecific Alkaline Phosphatase (TNSALP) Gene in Chinese Children with Hypophosphatasia

Characterization of Six Missense Mutations in the Tissue-Nonspecific Alkaline Phosphatase (TNSALP) Gene in Chinese Children with Hypophosphatasia

Aims: Hypophosphatasia, a rare inherited disease characterized by defective mineralization of bone and teeth, is caused by various mutations in the tissue-nonspecific isoenzyme of alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP) gene. Our aim was to determine the mutations on TNSALP gene in three Chinese children diag...
