We have found that the single Weaverland Conference patient with NPHS1 (6986) is a compound heterozygote for the major Mennonite mutation, 1481delC is the only mutation segregating in seven nuclear families from the Groffdale Conference (fig. rarity of NPHS1 mutations in most populations, identified here among non-Mennonites only when combined ./cache/work_vztrl2gfz5h25jnfih66ooqrwy.pdf ./txt/work_vztrl2gfz5h25jnfih66ooqrwy.txt
