The current version of the androgen receptor (AR) gene mutations database is described. The total number of reported mutations has risen from 309 to 374 during the past year. We have expanded the database by adding information on AR-interacting proteins; and we have improved the database by identify

Uterine endometrial carcinoma is common among women. Several reports indicated that this cancer is influenced by androgens mediated through their receptors. The human androgen receptor gene contains a polymorphic CAG repeat in the coding region of exon 1. Other studies suggested a possible associati
Neurofibromatosis type 1 ("1) is one of the most common inherited disorders, with an incidence of 1 in 3,000. We screened a total of 320 unrelated NF1 patients for mutations in exon 37 of the NF1 gene. Six independent mutations were identified, of which three are novel, and these include a recurrent
The dopamine D4 receptor (DRD4) gene exhibits a large amount of expressed polymorphism in humans. To understand the evolutionary history of the first exon of DRD4which in humans contains a polymorphic 12bp tandem duplication, a polymorphic 13bp deletion, and other rare variants-we examined the homol
