Abstract excerpt
Lurcher (Lc) is a semidominant mouse mutant that displays progressive neurodegeneration during perinatal development. This genetic lesion results in apoptotic neuronal death in a dosage dependent and cell autonomous manner in specific neurons during their terminal differentiation. To understand the molecular basis of the Lc mutation, we have adopted a positional cloning approach based on its location on mouse...
