Extract
Finding genetic linkage and identifying the genes responsible for disease can revolutionize our understanding of disorders with obscure or complex etiology and pathogenesis (Weatherall, 1991). When relevant genes have been cloned, the identification of specific mutations that cause disease (Goate et al., 1991) enables molecular pathogenesis of the condition to be addressed.
