Identification and characterization of a new human cDNA from chromosome 21q22.3 encoding a basic nuclear protein
Congenital heart disease (CHD) affects over 40% of Down syndrome (DS) patients. The region proposed to contain the gene(s) for DS CHD has been restricted to 21q22.2–22.3, from D21S55 to MX1. The… Expand

The identification of a novel human homologue of the SH3 binding glutamic acid-rich (SH3BGR) gene establishes a new family of highly conserved small proteins related to Thioredoxin Superfamily.
The SH3 binding glutamic acid-rich (SH3BGR) gene was cloned in an effort to identify genes located to human chromosome 21, within the congenital heart disease region, and expressed in the developing… Expand

Decreased glycosylation of band 3 and band 4‐5 glycoproteins of erythrocyte membrane in congenital dyserythropoietic anaemia type II
We report a study of HEMPAS erythrocyte membrane glycoproteins in relation to proteolytic digestion and surface labelling with galactose‐oxidase/NaB[3H]4. The proteolytic digestion of band 3, the… Expand

Impairment of F1F0-ATPase, adenine nucleotide translocator and adenylate kinase causes mitochondrial energy deficit in human skin fibroblasts with chromosome 21 trisomy.
A central role for mitochondrial dysfunction has been proposed in the pathogenesis of DS (Down's syndrome), a multifactorial disorder caused by trisomy of human chromosome 21. To explore whether and… Expand

Human NRD convertase: a highly conserved metalloendopeptidase expressed at specific sites during development and in adult tissues.
We report the cloning of the human homologue of the rat metalloprotease N-arginine dibasic convertase (NRD convertase). This endopeptidase is responsible for the processing, at the Arg-Lys dibasic… Expand

Identification and characterization of a new gene from human chromosome 21 between markers D21S343 and D21S268 encoding a leucine-rich protein.
We initiated the present work as part of an effort to identify and characterize genes from the EST2-HMG14 region from human chromosome 21 potentially responsible for some of the Down syndrome (DS)… Expand
