Abstract
⺠We report 13 patients with hypothyroidism due to thyroglobulin gene mutations. ⺠Molecular analysis reveals seven novels and three previously reported mutations. ⺠One patient carried three mutations together with a hypothetical micro deletion. ⺠The p.C1262Y induces a significant protein secondary structure rearrangement. ⺠Our results confirm the genetic heterogeneity of thyroglobulin defects.
