Genetic Instabilities and Neurological Diseases by Robert D. Wells Book PDF Summary

Genetic Instabilities and Neurological Diseases covers DNA repeat instability and neurological disorders, covering molecular mechanisms of repeat expansion, pathogenic mechanisms, clinical phenotype, parental gender effects, genotype-phenotype correlation, and diagnostic applications of the molecular data. This updated edition provides updates of these repeat expansion mutations, including the addition of many new chapters, and old chapters rewritten as extensions of the previous edition. This book is an invaluable reference source for neuroscientists, geneticists, neurologists, molecular biologists, genetic counsellors and students. Contributions by most of the principal research teams in the area, edited by world-renowned leaders Lays the background for future investigations on related diseases

Trinucleotide Diseases and Instability

Trinucleotide Diseases and Instability by Ben A. Oostra

Till recently, mutations in genes were described in textbooks as deletions or point mutations. These mutations can be inherited from a parent or they are de novo alterations. The discovery in 1991 that human disease can be caused by large-scale ex pansion of highly unstable trinucleotide repeats has elucidated a new

Glutamine Repeats and Neurodegenerative Diseases

Glutamine Repeats and Neurodegenerative Diseases by Peter S. Harper,Max F. Perutz

This book focuses on the discovery of a common genetic basis for a group of inherited neurological disorders, including Huntington's Disease, spino-bulbar atrophy and a series of hereditary ataxias. This shared molecular background and other similarities have led to the development of theoretical models for the pathogenesis of these diseases.

DNA targeting Molecules as Therapeutic Agents

DNA targeting Molecules as Therapeutic Agents by Michael J Waring

There have been remarkable advances towards discovering agents that exhibit selectivity and sequence-specificity for DNA, as well as understanding the interactions that underlie its propensity to bind molecules. This progress has important applications in many areas of biotechnology and medicine, notably in cancer treatment as well as in future gene
