چکیده
Objective: To develop factors based on the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) that index separate components of the autism phenotype that are genetically relevant and validated against standard measures of the constructs. Method: ADIs and ADI-Rs of 292 individuals with autism were subjected to a principal components analysis using VARCLUS. The resulting variable clusters were validated against standard measures. Results: Six clusters of variables emerged: spoken language, social intent, compulsions, developmental milestones, savant skills and sensory aversions. Five of the factors were significantly correlated with the validating measures and had good internal consistency, face validity, and discriminant and construct validity. Most intraclass correlations between siblings were adequate for use in genetic studies. Conclusion: The ADI-R contains correlated clusters of variables that are valid, genetically relevant, and that can be used in a variety of studies. J. Am. Acad. Child Adolesc.

Transcriptional activation domain (TAD) in virion protein 16 (VP16) of herpes simplex virus does not have any globular structure, yet exhibits a potent transcriptional activity. In order to probe the structural basis for the transcriptional activity of VP16 TAD, we have used NMR spectroscopy to investigate its detailed structural features. Results show that an unbound VP16 TAD is not merely "un...
