Cytoplasmic dynein (ddlc1) mutations cause morphogenetic defects and apoptotic cell death in Drosophila melanogaster.
We report the molecular and genetic characterization of the cytoplasmic dynein light-chain gene, ddlc1, from Drosophila melanogaster. ddlc1 encodes the first cytoplasmic dynein light chain… Expand
A second-generation genetic linkage map of the domestic dog, Canis familiaris.
Purebred strains, pronounced phenotypic variation, and a high incidence of heritable disease make the domestic dog uniquely suited to complement genetic analyses in humans and mice. A comprehensive… Expand
malvolio, the Drosophila homologue of mouse NRAMP‐1 (Bcg), is expressed in macrophages and in the nervous system and is required for normal taste behaviour.

A genetic linkage map of the canine genome has been developed by typing 150 microsatellite markers using 17 three-generation pedigrees, composed of 163 F2 individuals. One hundred and thirty-nine… Expand
Myocilin gene implicated in primary congenital glaucoma

- 1 April 2005
Primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) has been associated with CYP1B1 gene (2p21), with a predominantly autosomal recessive mode of inheritance. Our earlier studies attributed CYP1B1 mutations to only… Expand
Wilson's disease: an update
Wilson's disease (WD) is an inborn error of copper metabolism caused by a mutation to the copper-transporting gene ATP7B. The disease has an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance, and is… Expand
