Fine mapping of the alpha-T catenin gene to a quantitative trait locus on chromosome 10 in late-onset Alzheimer's disease pedigreesNilufer Ertekin-Taner
Department of Neuroscience, Mayo Clinic Jacksonville, Jacksonville, FL 32224, USA
Hum Mol Genet 12:3133-43. 2003..These findings indicate that VR22 has variant(s) which influence Abeta42 and contribute to the previously reported linkage for plasma Abeta42 in LOAD families...
