ATAXIA-TELANGIECTASIA AND THE NIJMEGEN BREAKAGE SYNDROME: Related Disorders But Genes Apart
1 Dec 1997
Abstract excerpt
Gene mutations provide valuable clues to cellular metabolism. In humans such insights come mainly from genetic disorders. Ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) and Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS) are two distinct but closely related, single gene disorders that highlight a complex junction of several signal transduction pathways. These pathways appear to control defense mechanisms against specific types of damage to...
