Molecular genetic epidemiology of human diseases: from patterns to predictions.

Abstract excerpt

Databases of disease-associated or disease-causing mutations allow the study, not only of the molecular mechanisms underlying the primary lesions at the DNA level, but also of the functional consequences of mutation at the phenotypic level. The Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD) and the bioinformatics analyses of its content provide an illustrative example of this indirect approach to molecular genetic...
