Abstract:
The methods and compositions of the invention find use in the clinical diagnosis of cholestasis related syndromes, particularly PFIC types 1, 2, and 3; BRIC types 1 and 2; Alagille syndrome, and alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency. The compositions of the invention include isolated nucleic acid molecules and oligonucleotide pairs suitable for use in amplifying regions of cholestasis related genes. Compositions of the invention include a cholestasis related gene resequencing microarray suitable for determining the nucleotide sequence of a region of a cholestasis related gene. Knowledge of the nucleotide sequence of one or more regions of a patient's cholestasis related gene allows diagnosis of the patient's syndrome.
