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 کاملFOXG1-Related Disorders: From Clinical Description to Molecular Genetics.
Rett syndrome (RTT) is a severe neurodevelopmental disease that affects approximately 1 in 10,000 live female births and is often caused by mutations in the X-linked gene encoding methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MECP2). Mutations in loci other than MECP2 have also been found in individuals that have been labeled as atypical RTT. Among them, a mutation in the gene forkhead box G1 (FOXG1) has been ...
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...
