Inherited mutations of the ATM gene are responsible for the human autosomal recessive disorder ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) characterized by pleiotropic clinical manifestations. ATM mutations are also involved in the development of sporadic human cancers such as T-cell prolymphocytic leukemia and B-c
## Communicated by David Cooper Neuropsin (kallikrein 8, KLK8) is a secreted-type serine protease preferentially expressed in the central nervous system and involved in learning and memory. Its splicing pattern is different in human and mouse, with the longer form (type II) only expressed in human.
The association of progeroid features and lipodystrophy was very recently described in a female adult with additional manifestations of Marfan syndrome. Mutation analysis of the fibrillin I (FBN1) gene revealed a novel heterozygous frameshift mutation at the 3' end in that patient. Here, we report o
