    A genome-wide scan points to a susceptibility locus for bipolar disorder on chromosome 12

    Our previous results pointed to a putative gene for susceptibility to bipolar affective disorder located on the chromosomal region 12q23–q24 that segregated in the Saguenay-Lac-St-Jean population of Quebec. We...

    Presenilin Proteins and the Pathogenesis of Early-Onset Familial Alzheimer’s Disease: β-Amyloid Production and Parallels to Prion Diseases

    In contrast to rare mutations in the amyloid presursor protein (APP) gene, missense mutations in the presenilin 1 (PS1) and presenilin 2 (PS2) genes, on chromosomes 14 and 1 respectively, are the most common c...

    Familial Alzheimer's disease in kindreds with missense mutations in a gene on chromosome 1 related to the Alzheimer's disease type 3 gene

    WE report the cloning of a novel gene (E5-1) encoded on chromosome 1 which has substantial nucleotide and amino-acid sequence similarity to the S182 gene on chromosome 14q24.3. Mutations, including three new miss...

    Cloning of a gene bearing missense mutations in early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease

    Some cases of Alzheimer's disease are inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. Genetic linkage studies have mapped a locus (AD3) associated with susceptibility to a very aggressive form of Alzheimer's disease to...
