A novel gene, ASFMR1, is reported, overlapping the CGG repeat region of FMR1 and transcribed in the antisense orientation, which suggests that in addition to F MR1, ASfMR1 may contribute to the variable phenotypes associated with the C GG repeat expansion.
Learning Style and Adjustment Issues of International Students
Abstract Instructors can help international students to be successful at U.S. universities by determining, then explaining to them, their preferred learning styles. Such knowledge can assist college…
