This book describes everything about DNA repeat instability and neurological
disorders, covering molecular mechanisms of repeat expansion, pathogenic
mechanisms, clinical phenotype, parental gender effects, genotype-phenotype
correlation, and diagnostic applications of the molecular data. This updated
edition provides excellent updates of these repeat expansion mutations,
including the addition of many new chapters, and old chapters rewritten as
extensions of the previous edition. This edition also features a CD-ROM
containing all of the figures from the book. This book is an invaluable
reference source for neuroscientists, geneticists, neurologists, molecular
biologists, genetic counsellors and students.
