Summary: USE The CF gene and its gene prod., nucleic acid probes and antibodies to the gene prod. can be used for screening for and detection of CF carriers, CF diagnosis and prenatal CF screening and diagnosis. The gene prod. and gene therapy can be used for CF therapy. The prods. can also be used to develop improved methods of treatment and to study the disease.
Novelty: Cystic fibrosis gene used to produce prods. for screening, detection, diagnosis, therapy and studying cystic fibrosis
