Genetic Causes of Mental Retardation in Bushehr Province
Objective: About 50% of severe to profound intellectual disabilities (ID) are caused by genetic factors. In this study we decided to investigate the genetic causes of ID in 69 Bushehrian families to provide information for genetic counseling, carrier detection, and prenatal diagnosis. Materials & Methods: In this study we excluded known chromosomal abnormalities. The majority of families had...

Advances in gene discovery methodologies and the analysis of samples from large cohorts of families have rapidly increased our knowledge of the number of genes that cause mental retardation.

Although the X chromosome may harbour a disproportionate number ...

Yet, this text discusses neither protein structure nor nucleic acid structure and minimizes discussions of drug induced conformational changes. In other words, this volume is a good textbook of nonmolecular pharmacology. In the introduction th...
