Synopsis

This is a summary of research advances which have implications for a number of diseases, including muscular dystrophy and cystic fibrosis. The text describes how these advances are leading to an understanding of the diseases' pathology, an essential first stage for devising treatment. The contributors also explain how knowledge gained through the discovery of various genes and associated mutations has enriched the wider field of genetics.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

A large proportion of human disease is caused by faulty genes, but until recently very few of these genes were known. Advances in molecular genetics over the last ten years have made it possible to systematically track down, isolate and begin to understand the function of these disease genes. This book describes the isolation of the genes responsible for a number of important human diseases, including Huntington′s disease, muscular dystrophy and cystic fibrosis.
