Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Lead toxicity presents a worldwide health problem, especially due to its adverse effects on cognitive development in children. However, identifying genes that give rise to individual variation in susceptibility to lead toxicity is challenging in human populations. OBJECTIVES: Our goal was to use Drosophila melanogaster to identify evolutionarily conserved candidate genes associated with individual...
