Oncogenes are altered forms of normal cellular genes known as proto-oncogenes. Several oncogenes encode enzymes that phosphorylate substrate proteins at tyrosine. In most of these cases the oncogene differs from itsproto-oncogene by multiple mutations that alter the structure of the encodedprotein p
## Communicated Jean-Louis M a d l The gene for the most common peroxisomal disorder, X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD, Mc-Kusick #300100), encodes a peroxisomal membrane transporter protein (ALDP), and comprises 10 exons spanning approximately 21 kb. So far, however, the mutation analysis at
## Abstract More than 200 diseaseβrelated mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) point mutations have been reported in the Mitomap (http://www.mitomap.org) database. These mutations can be divided into two groups: mutations affecting mitochondrial protein synthesis, including mutations in tRNA and rRNA genes; a
