FOXE3 is a lens-specific transcription factor with a highly conserved forkhead domain previously implicated in congenital primary aphakia and anterior segment dysgenesis. Here, we identify new recessive FOXE3 mutations causative for microphthalmia, sclerocornea, primary aphakia, and glaucoma in two

An &&adaptive dynamics'' modelling approach to the evolution of dominance-recessivity is presented. In this approach, "tness derives from an explicit ecological scenario, and both evolutionary attractivity and invasibility of resident populations are examined. The ecology consists of a within-indiv
## Abstract Familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) is a human inherited disorder of metabolism characterised by increased serum lowβdensity lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. It is caused by defects in the LDLβreceptor pathway that impair normal uptake and clearance of LDL by the liver. The commonest caus
