Pneumoviruses: Molecular Genetics and Reverse Genetics
Pneumoviruses are responsible for significant respiratory disease in their hosts and represent a major problemfor human and animal health. Pneumoviruses are members of the family Paramyxoviridae, subfamilyPneumovirinae and the virus particles consist of a negative-sense, nonsegmented RNA genome within a helical nucleocapsid structure enveloped in a lipid membrane derived from the ho...
متن کاملMolecular genetics of peroxisomal disorders.
Twenty five human peroxisomal disorders have been defined at this time. They are subdivided into two major categories: 1) the disorders of peroxisome biogenesis, in which the organelle fails to form normally, and there are defects that involve multiple peroxisomal functions; and 2) disorders that affect single peroxisomal enzymes. During the last five years the molecular defects have been ident...
متن کاملMolecular genetics of disorders of haem biosynthesis.
Introduction Haem is synthesised in all animal cells from succinyl CoA and glycine by a sequence of reactions catalysed by eight enzymes.1 Absence of any one of these enzymes is incompatible with life because haem is an essential component of respiratory proteins. Partial deficiencies occur, however, and cause disease (table 1).12 The activity of 5-aminolaevulinate (ALA) synthase, the first and...
متن کاملMolecular Genetics and Epidemiology of Vitiligo
Background: Vitiligo is an acquired, idiopathic, and common depigmentation disorder of the skin that affects people of all ages and both sexes equally in the worldwide. Although etiology of the disease is unknown, there are theories such as environment and genetic factors. Methods: In this article, we collected and summarized the appropriate manuscripts regarding the epidemiology and gene...
متن کاملGenetics of Lipid and Lipoprotein Disorders and Traits
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Plasma lipids, namely cholesterol and triglyceride, and lipoproteins, such as low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein, serve numerous physiological roles. Perturbed levels of these traits underlie monogenic dyslipidemias, a diverse group of multisystem disorders. We are on the verge of having a relatively complete picture of the human dyslipidemias and their...
