          Abstract

          In a recent study of three families we have found that inherited haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS) maps to a region of chromosome 1q containing the gene for complement factor H. In one of these families and also in a case of sporadic D-HUS, we have identified mutations in the factor H gene. A further family with inherited HUS has therefore been investigated.
