During inter-locus gene conversion (GC), a nonreciprocal transfer of sequence information between a pair of nonallelic homologous DNA sequences takes place. One of the interacting sequences, the donor, remains unchanged, but the other sequence, the acceptor, gains a stretch of DNA copied from the do
## Abstract Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a common cardiac defect found in infants and children. Despite advances in diagnosis and treatment, our understanding of the causative mechanism and etiology of CHD is limited. To determine the genetic etiology of CHD, we selected 11 consecutive short t
The pace of localization and characterization of genes affected in human genetic disorders is quickening. Many important genes were localized or characterized recently: genes for in cystic fibrosis, NF-2, Marfan's syndrome and xeroderma pigmentosum, to name a few. Also, in the past 15 months, the CF
