Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease: a novel Tyr145Ser mutation in the myelin protein zero (MPZ, P0) gene causes different phenotypes in homozygous and heterozygous carriers within one family
(Neurogenetics : 4 (4) p. 191-197, 2003-07-05)
Abstract. Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type IB (CMT 1B) is caused by mutations in the gene
coding for peripheral myelin protein zero (MPZ, P0) that plays a fundamental role in adhesion
and compaction of peripheral myelin. ...
Helicobacter pylori in a Costa Rican dyspeptic patient population
(1994-03)
Gastric biopsies from 65 Costa Rican dyspeptic patients were investigated for the presence ofHelicobacter pylori DNA by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of 16S rRNA sequences. Both frozen and paraffin-embedded ...

A novel myosin heavy chain gene in human chromosome 19q13.3
(Gene: 312 p. 165-171, 2003-07)
A human myosin heavy chain gene was identified in chromosome 19q13 by computational sequence analysis, RT-PCR and DNA
sequencing of the cDNA. The complete cDNA has a length of 6786 bp and comprises 41 exons (40 coding) ...
Microevolution of the Chibcha-speaking peoples of Lower Central America: rare genes in an Amerindian complex
(1992)
Models are developed for the survival, history, and spread of variant alleles, in order to consider what can, and what cannot, be inferred from this type of data. The high variances of the processes involved, and questions ...
