A sample of 103 randomly chosen healthy individuals from Alegrete, RS, Brazil, was tested for the CCR5delta32 allele, which is known to influence susceptibility to HIV-1 infection. The CCR5delta32...
Y-chromosome evidence for differing ancient demographic histories in the Americas (2003)
Salzano, F.M., Thomas, M.G., Stuart, S., Nasanen, S.P.K., Bau, C.H.D., ...
To scrutinize the male ancestry of extant Native American populations, we examined eight biallelic and six microsatellite polymorphisms from the nonrecombining portion of the Y chromosome, in 438...
Freitas,L. B., Bonatto,S. L., Salzano,F. M.
We have examined phylogenetic relationships in seven pathogenesis-related (PR) protein families. Within-family comparisons involved 79 species, 166 amino acid sequences, and 1,791 sites. For 37...
Viégas, Judith, Souza, P. L. R., Salzano, F. M.
A pair of male monozygotic twins, both affected by progeria is described. The concordance in this manifestation suggests a genetic aetiology and other evidence indicates the implication of autosomal...
