Journal ArticleDOI

Extensive germinal mosaicism in a family with X linked myotubular myopathy simulates genetic heterogeneity.

TL;DR: A 4 bp deletion in exon 4 of the MTM1 gene is found, which originated from the grandfather of the affected children and which was transmitted to three daughters, illustrating the importance of mutation detection to avoid pitfalls in linkage analysis that may be caused by such cases of germinal mosaicism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Actin-like sequences are present on human X and Y chromosomes.

TL;DR: The presence of actin‐like sequences on both the X and the Y chromosomes is shown by blot hybridization, showing that the region of chromosome Y which contains the actin sequence is not translocated onto the X chromosome (or onto autosomes) in these patients.
Journal Article

The red-green visual pigment gene region in adrenoleukodystrophy.

TL;DR: It is proposed that a single DNA rearrangement could underlie both ALD and abnormal color vision in patients with adrenomyeloneuropathy, and that the frequent phenotypic color vision anomalies owe their origin to deleted DNA that includes regulatory genes for color vision.
Journal ArticleDOI

cDNA sequence of Aldgh, the mouse homolog of the X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy gene

TL;DR: The sequence of the mouse ALD cDNA (Aldh) and data suggesting that homologous sequences are present in a wide range of species are reported here, and it is suggested that homology to ATP-binding domains of proteins such as CFTR or the multidrug resistance glycoprotein (MDR1) is present.
