Journal ArticleDOI

Structure of the angiotensin I-converting enzyme gene. Two alternate promoters correspond to evolutionary steps of a duplicated gene.

TL;DR: The gene duplication suggested by the internal homology of the endothelial ACE mRNA is now confirmed by the presence of two homologous clusters of eight exons having similar sizes and codon phases at exon-intron boundaries.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiple Promoters in the WNK1 Gene: One Controls Expression of a Kidney-Specific Kinase-Defective Isoform

TL;DR: Control of human WNK1 gene expression of kinase-active or -deficient isoforms is mediated predominantly through the use of multiple transcription initiation sites and tissue-specific regulatory elements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mapping of a First Locus for Autosomal Dominant Myxomatous Mitral-Valve Prolapse to Chromosome 16p11.2-p12.1

TL;DR: By systematic echocardiographic screening of the first-degree relatives of 17 patients who underwent mitral-valve repair, four pedigrees showing an autosomal dominant inheritance of the trait are identified, demonstrating the genetic heterogeneity of the disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic Analysis of the β Subunit of the Epithelial Na+ Channel in Essential Hypertension

TL;DR: The present study illustrates the difficulty in establishing a relation of causality between a susceptibility gene and hypertension and does not favor a substantial role of the betaENaC gene in essential hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sib pair linkage analysis of renin gene haplotypes in human essential hypertension

TL;DR: The sib pair analysis suggests that the renin gene does not have a frequent role in the pathogenesis of essential hypertension; further more powerful linkage studies or other approaches will be needed to detect contributions at the renIn locus to the heritability of essential pulmonary hypertension.
