INTRODUCTION: Mutations in the pore domain of the human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) potassium channel are associated with higher risk of sudden death. However, in many kindreds clinical presenta...
Genome-scale metabolic maps can be reconstructed from annotated genome sequence data, biochemical literature, bioinformatic analysis, and strain-specific information. Flux-balance analysis has been us...
The study of the neurobehavioral consequences of mutations of FMR1, the gene responsible for fragile X syndrome (FraX), has been based largely on correlations between mutation patterns and cognitive p...
The presence of a DNA mutation is frequently used to define a disease or a risk state. Because DNA typing has become easy and convenient in contrast to protein characterization, it is generally assume...
The hypothesis that cytochrome P450IA2 (CYPIA2) and/or N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) may be involved in the pathogenesis of peripheral arterial disease was investigated in 90 Australian patients with s...
Congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG) type Ia (PMM2 mutations) is the most common genetic disorder of protein N-glycosylation. The wide clinical spectrum with mild to severe impairment of neurolo...
Larsen syndrome is a congenital condition consisting of multiple large joint dislocations associated with a distinctive facial appearance and frequently other abnormalities. The syndrome is probably g...
