An Introduction to Human Molecular Genetics: Mechanisms of Inherited Diseases

By Jack J. Pasternak and Boris Pasternak

Book Overview

This extensive publication provides coverage of the genetic principles governing human inherited diseases. More than a catalogue of disease related genes, this text explains the interaction of genes and their products and the consequences of these mechanisms in disease states in major organ systems such as muscle, the nervous system, and the eye, as well as cancer and mitochondrial disorders. In addition, coverage of some basic biology and physiology of each system is included to provide broader context for the study of disease.
