Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic contributions to stuttering: the current evidence.
TL;DR: Evidence for genetic factors in persistent developmental stuttering has accumulated over the past four decades, and the genes that underlie this disorder are starting to be identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bitter taste study in a sardinian genetic isolate supports the association of phenylthiocarbamide sensitivity to the TAS2R38 bitter receptor gene.
Dionigio Antonio Prodi,Dennis Drayna,Paola Forabosco,Maria Antonietta Palmas,Giovanni Battista Maestrale,Daniela Piras,M Pirastu,Andrea Angius +7 more
TL;DR: A small isolated village in eastern Sardinia is studied and a genome-wide scan is carried out to map the genetic basis of PTC perception in this population to identify two haplotypes associated with the non-taster phenotype and to taster phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI
The sex ratio in familial persistent stuttering.
TL;DR: This work was supported by the NIDCD/NIH, Z01-00046-01, and by the National Human Genome Research Institute.
Journal ArticleDOI
HLA class II haplotype and sequence analysis support a role for DQ in narcolepsy
Michael C. Ellis,Angela H. Hetisimer,David A. Ruddy,Sherry L. Hansen,Gregory S. Kronmal,Erin E. McClelland,Leah Quintana,Dennis Drayna,Michael S. Aldrich,Emmanuel Mignot +9 more
TL;DR: Results from a systematic haplotype and sequencing analysis of the HLA-DR and -DQ region in patients with narcolepsy are consistent with other studies, suggesting that the Hla-DQ genes themselves are among the predisposing factors in narcoLEpsy.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new MspI restriction fragment length polymorphism in the hemophilia B locus.
G. Camerino,G. Camerino,G. Camerino,I. Oberlé,I. Oberlé,Dennis Drayna,Jean-Louis Mandel,Jean-Louis Mandel +7 more
TL;DR: The MspI RELP is in strong linkage disequilibrium with theTaqI RFLP previously described, but should nevertheless be useful in segregation analysis in case of homozygosity for the TaqI minor allelc.
