Abstract excerpt
Ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) is a severe autosomal recessive disorder involving cerebellar degeneration, immunodeficiency, chromosomal instability, radiosensitivity, and cancer predisposition. A-T results from mutations in a single gene (ataxia-telangiectasia mutated, ATM) on chromosome 11 that encodes a 3056 amino acid protein (ATM). The purpose of this study is the design of an easy and rapid method for the...
