      PKD2, a gene for polycystic kidney disease that encodes an integral membrane protein 

      Mochizuki, Toshio; Wu, G.; Hayashi, Tomohito; Xenophontos, Stavroulla L.; Veldhuisen, B.; Saris, J. J.; Reynolds, D. M.; Cai, Y.; Gabow, P. A.; Pierides, Alkis M.; Kimberling, W. J.; Breuning, M. H.; Constantinou-Deltas, Constantinos D.; Peters, D. J. M.; Somlo, Stefan (1996)
      A second gene for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease was identified by positional cloning. Nonsense mutations in this gene (PKD2) segregated with the disease in three PKD2 families. The predicted 968-amino acid ...
