Extractions: I continue to study the frequency and trends of congenital anomalies in Alberta, using the database of the Alberta Congenital Anomalies Surveillance System (ACASS). The data on neural tube defects is being used in a multi province study to examine the effect of fortification of folic acid in flour which took place in Canada in 1998. The ACASS staff participated in a study of the completeness and accuracy of our data which was done in conjunction with the Health Surveillance Branch of Alberta Health and Wellness. ACASS data was used to help in the study of congenital foot deformities and their association with early amniocentesis (see Yoon et al).

Extractions: Ancora oggi rimane dubbia la esistenza di una forma autosomica dominante di Sindrome di Alport. Con il progredire della malattia compare assai frequentemente l'ipertensione arteriosa. Le caratteristiche delle differenti mutazioni presentate dal gene che codifica la sintesi della catena A5 del collagene IV rendono conto delle diverse caratteristiche del quadro clinico presentato dai singoli pazienti e dai loro familiari. I recenti progressi di biologia molecolare relativi allo studio genetico della sindrome di Alport, possono spesso permettere una diagnosi diretta di malattia per mezzo della identificazione della specifica mutazione presentata dai pazienti.

Extractions: Head of Molecular Genetics Research Group Peter Green graduated from Cardiff in 1980 and completed his PhD on the molecular genetics of Aspergillus nidulans in 1984. He joined the department as a postdoc the same year working on mutation characterisation in the factor IX gene. He became a lecturer in the Division in 1991 Lab Staff: Lab alumni Richard Bagnall Dr Naushin Waseem Theo Anagnostopoulos Aims of the Molecular Genetics Research Group The main focus of our grouphas been on the haemophilias and developing strategies to identify all mutations in the two coagulation factor genes responsible (f8 and f9). In recent years the approach we have used on the haemophilias has been broadened to include other diseases such as Alport syndrome. We have set up National mutation and pedigree databases for both haemophilias in collaboration with the UK haemophilia Centres The solid phase fluorescent chemical cleavage of mismatch technique for mutation scanning was developed in the lab and applied to SNP detection and scoring across large sequenced genomic DNA regions. This approach has led to novel insights into linkage disequilibrium blocks and recombination. Haemophilia A mutation database project.

Extractions: Dr. Skolnick co-founded Myriad Genetics, Inc. in 1991, where he is currently Chief Scientific Officer. Myriad Genetics is an emerging biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of therapeutic and diagnostic products that are based on the use of genomic and proteomic technologies. Myriad Genetics is currently seeking the genes which predispose to cancer, coronary heart disease, central nervous system disorders, obesity, osteoporosis, and asthma. With Drs. Botstein and Davis, he conceptualized the use of restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) to systematically pinpoint genetic traits on chromosomes. An updated version of this technology has been used to create a genetic map of the human genome, the first step in the human genome project. Dr. Skolnick received a Bachelor of Arts degree from UC Berkeley in Economics, where he also studied demography. He received his Ph.D. in genetics at Stanford University. Dr. Skolnick joined the University of Utah faculty in 1974. He holds positions in both the departments of Biology and Medical Informatics, where he is currently a professor.

Extractions: Department of Pediatrics, University Hospital Nijmegen, The Netherlands. A group of 22 unrelated patients with sporadic or non-X-linked Alport syndrome were screened for mutations in the non-collagenous domain of the type IV collagen alpha 3 (COL4A3) chain gene. The five 3'-exons of this gene, located on chromosome 2qter, were tested by single strand conformation polymorphism analysis and direct sequencing. One patient was heterozygous and another homozygous (Mochizuki et al., Nature Genetics, in
Extractions: INSERM U.423, Hopital Necker-Enfants Malades, Universite Rene Descartes Paris V, France. Alport syndrome is a mainly X-linked hereditary disease of basement membranes characterized by progressive renal failure, deafness, and ocular lesions. The alpha 3(IV) and alpha 4(IV) collagen genes have been recently shown to be involved in the less frequent autosomal recessive form. When screening lymphocyte COL4A3 mRNAs from Alport patients, we found a mutant whose transcripts were disrupted by a 74 bp insertion at the junction of exons IV or V and VI. The insertion derives from an antisense Alu element
