abstract：:As part of an effort to identify genes potentially involved in the Down Syndrome pathogenesis, in this paper we report the identification and characterization of a new human gene (named SH3BGRL), which shows a high homology to the SH3BGR gene, previously mapped to the Down Syndrome region of chromosome 21. The SH3BGRL...
