Scientists find link between genetic defect on chromosome 15 and epilepsy. A subset of patients with epilepsy lack a certain part of this chromosome. The loss of small chromosomal segments, called ...
... on Chromosomes 1 and 15 reported by Sklar and colleagues, as well as an additional area on Chromosome 15, are also implicated in schizophrenia by another large study published online the same day in ...
... The scientists were able to identify three especially important CNVs, one of which is found on chromosome 1 and the other two on chromosome 15, respectively. These CNVs proved relevant to the risk of ...
... . By 1999, they had narrowed the location of Rfv3 to a relatively small region on mouse chromosome 15, but that region contained more than 60 genes. The laboratory of GIVI Director Warner C. Greene ...

Sequence gaps in human chromosome 15 have been closed by the application of 454 technology. Researchers writing in BioMed Central's open access journal Genome Biology have described a simple and ...
Sequence gaps in human chromosome 15 have been closed by the application of 454 technology. Researchers have described a simple and scalable method for finishing nonstructural gaps in genome ...
The loss of a gene through deletion of genetic material on chromosome 15 is associated with significant abnormalities in learning and behavior, said a consortium of researchers led by Baylor College ...
