EXAMINING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GENETIC COUNSELORS’ IMPLICIT ATTITUDES TOWARD DISABILITY AND THEIR PRACTICE METHODS [PDF]
Genetic counselors serve as a link between the medical community and the disability community as they are regularly the first exposure families have following a new diagnosis in a pregnancy, infant or child.

This study focuses on identifying potential allosteric pockets on PfHGXPRT that are structurally distinct from those on HsHGPRT. An in silico binding pocket workflow was employed integrating tools such as FTMap, FTSite, Protein Allosteric and Regulatory Sites (PARS), and the Protein Allosteric Sites Server (PaSSer). Identified pockets were evaluated by

Abstract Background Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) rearrangements are recognised factors in mitochondrial disorders and ageing, but their involvement in neurodevelopmental disorders, particularly intellectual disability (ID) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD), remains poorly understood. Previous studies have reported mitochondrial dysfunction in individuals

The differential diagnosis of Huntington's disease-like syndromes: 'red flags' for the clinician [PDF]
A growing number of progressive heredodegenerative conditions mimic the presentation of Huntington's disease (HD). Differentiating among these HD-like syndromes is necessary when a patient with a combination of movement disorders, cognitive decline ...

Genetic Risk Factors in Isolated Dystonia Escape Genome‐Wide Association Studies
Abstract Background Despite considerable heritability, previous smaller genome‐wide association studies (GWASs) have not identified any robust genetic risk factors for isolated dystonia. Objective The objective of this study was to perform a large‐scale GWAS in a well‐characterized, multicenter sample of >6000 individuals to identify genetic risk ...

The creation of transgenic animal “models” for human genetic disease [PDF]
Transgenic animals will be created to study human genetic disease as soon as the technological capability exists to do so. Extant laws permit such animals to be created. The mindset of the research community makes it inevitable.
