A new chromosome x exon-specific microarray platform for screening of patients with X-linked disorders.

Abstract Recent studies and advances in high-density oligonucleotide arrays have shown that microdeletions and microduplications occur at a high frequency in the human genome, causing various genetic conditions including mental…

Quaternary history and contemporary patterns in a currently expanding species.

Abstract Quaternary climatic oscillations had dramatic effects on species evolution. In northern latitudes, populations had to survive the coldest periods in refugial areas and recurrently colonized northern regions during interglacials.…

SOX1 links the function of neural patterning and Notch signalling in the ventral spinal cord during the neuron-glial fate switch.

Abstract During neural development the transition from neurogenesis to gliogenesis, known as the neuron-glial (Nu/G) fate switch, requires the coordinated function of patterning factors, pro-glial factors and Notch signalling. How…

Maple syrup urine disease in Cypriot families: identification of three novel mutations and biochemical characterization of the p.Thr211Met mutation in the E1alpha subunit.

Abstract We report five mutations, three of them novel, responsible for maple syrup urine disease in four unrelated Cypriot families. The five children studied are the first cases of classic…

Genetic variation in genes interacting with BRCA1/2 and risk of breast cancer in the Cypriot population.

Abstract Inability to correctly repair DNA damage is known to play a role in the development of breast cancer. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of DNA repair genes have been identified,…
