Genetic heterogeneity in Pakistani microcephaly families.
Autosomal recessive primary microcephaly (MCPH) is caused by mutations in at least eight different genes involved either in cell division or DNA repair. Most mutations are identified in consanguine families from Pakistan, Iran and India. To further assess their genetic heterogeneity and mutational spectra, we have analyzed 57 consanguine Pakistani MCPH families. In 34 MCPH families, we detected...
متن کاملGenetic dissection of two Pakistani families with consanguineous localized autosomal recessive hypotrichosis (LAH)
Objective(s): Genetic analysis of two consanguineous Pakistani families with localized autosomal recessive hypotrichosis was performed with the goal to establish genotype-phenotype correlation. Materials and Methods: Genomic DNA extraction had been done from peripheral blood samples. Extracted DNA was then subjected to PCR (polymerase chain reaction) for amplification. Linkage analysis was perf...
متن کاملGenetic 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...

متن کاملMolecular study of a consanguineous family with autosomal recessive mental retardation and speech disorder
Mental retardation (MR) is one of the most frequently found major genetic disorders around the world, affecting 1-3% of the people in the general population. The recent advancement in molecular biology and cytogenetic study has made possible the identification of new genes for a variety of genetic disorders including autosomal recessive MR. Recessive genetic disorders are common in Pakistan due...
