| genomic organization of the human hairless gene (hr) and identification of a mutation underlying congenital atrichia in an arab palestinian family. | congenital atrichia is a rare form of hereditary human hair loss, characterized by the complete shedding of hair shortly after birth, together with the formation of papular lesions on the skin. recently, we cloned the human homolog of the mouse hairless gene and identified pathogenic mutations in several families with inherited congenital atrichia. here, we present the genomic organization of the human hairless gene (hgmw-approved symbol hr), which spans over 14 kb on chromosome 8p12 and is orga ... | 1999 | 10051399 |
| low h-2 polymorphism in some israeli wild mouse populations. | two populations of the wild house mouse, mus domesticus, found living close to each other (one inhabited a chicken coop and the other an open field at the educational farm of the hebrew university of jerusalem, east talpiot, jerusalem) were studied for their h-2 polymorphism. these two populations were selected because they are well characterized in terms of their ecological parameters; they have been under continuous surveillance for several years. twenty-seven h-2 homozygous lines were produce ... | 1986 | 2432002 |
