Homozygosity for Pc 1 Duarte-like protein in primates and other animals.

Abstract:

:Pc 1 Duarte is a mutant brain protein present in 32% of the normal human population with 2.6% being homozygous. Preliminary studies suggest an increased frequency of this mutation in individuals with affective disease. To determine if this mutant was present in primates, 32 fetal (wild)-born baboons were examined. All 32 were homozygous for a Pc 1 Duarte-like protein.

  • The PARK8 locus in autosomal dominant parkinsonism: confirmation of linkage and further delineation of the disease-containing interval.

    abstract::Recently, a new locus (PARK8) for autosomal dominant parkinsonism has been identified in one large Japanese family. Linkage has been shown to a 16-cM centromeric region of chromosome 12, between markers D12S1631 and D12S339. We tested 21 white families with Parkinson disease and an inheritance pattern compatible with ...
