Notes This database is one of the gene variant databases from the "Leiden Muscular Dystrophy pages" (LMDp).
The origin of this database was the DATABASE ON TRANSTHYRETIN MUTATIONS established by Maria Jo„o Mascarenhas Saraiva (Feb.2011, at http://www.ibmc.up.pt/mjsaraiva/ttrmut.html). Later the data were shared with Amyloidosis consortium (http://amyloidosismutations.com/).
Date created April 29, 2010
