The finding of the altered gene, which codes for an enzyme necessary for mopping up dangerous free radicals roaming in the central nervous system, suggests that scientists may find a cure for the disease if they can mimic the effects of the enzyme in sufferers of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis...
"Unlike Mr. Amaral, Harvard does not dispute that Mr. Hicks has the job skills requisite for...his current job or a lateral transfer," Taylor added. "He was not, however, transferred because he was in disciplinary status related solely to his poor performance and inappropriate conduct."
PAGES ARE BEING ADDED TO THE BOOK OF GENETICS at an accelerating pace these days. Researchers announced that they have identified a defective gene that appears to cause amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, better known as Lou Gehrig's disease. About 30,000 Americans suffer from the disorder, which causes degeneration of...
Even as the gala event at Cold Spring Harbor was proceeding, news came that a collaborative group of scientists from 13 institutions had identified the gene that, when faulty, is responsible for at least some cases of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or ALS, the untreatable degenerative nerve disorder that crippled and...
An international team of more than 30 scientists, led by Associate Professor of Neurology Robert H. Brown Jr, reports today the discovery of an altered gene likely responsible for 40-60 percent of familial, or hereditary, cases of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The disease's familiar name refers to the...
