candidate gene in Gordon's syndrome

Gordon's syndrome, characterized by hyperkalemia, metabolic
acidosis, and hypertension with increased proximal tubular
chloride reabsorption, might conceivably be linked to
abnormalities of the thiazide-sensitive Na-Cl cotransporter.
This gene has recently been cloned and localized, allowing for
genetic linkage studies. Linkage analysis of 3 extended kindreds
with Gordon's syndrome, however, excluded mutation of this gene
as a cause.
