They next analyzed long gene expression in mice of different ages. (sciencedaily.com)
Finally, small beads are used to sort the mixture of DNA fragments into the right combinations to make longer genes, and the sections are combined. (sciencedaily.com)
The data from the Greenberg lab converge to suggest that Rett Syndrome may result from a relatively subtle yet widespread overexpression of long genes with functions important for the brain while the Duplication Syndrome could be due to under expression of these same genes. (sciencedaily.com)
