Advances in Genetics Research : Volume 11

"Advances in Genetics Research" presents original research results on the leading edge of genetics discovery. Each article has been carefully selected in an attempt to present substantial research results across a broad spectrum. In this continuing series compilation, the authors present and discuss varied topical data such as late diagnosis in multiple X and Y chromosome disorders; the design and cloning strategies of recombinant allergens for diagnosis and specific immunotherapy; the advances in molecular cloning directing the production of plant proteins and their applications in pathogens control; the genetic basis of congenital heart disease; the large-scale evolution by generating new genes; characteristics of MX gene that shows resistance to vesicular stomatitis virus; the vertebrate fatty acid and retinoid binding protein and proteins; and the clonal evolution and cytogenetic changes in chronic myeloid leukaemia.
