"CMT is usually inherited in a dominant fashion, meaning that if either parent has the damaged gene causing the disorder, a child can inherit the condition," he added. Chance and Matsunami are currently funded for the research by the MDA, the March of Dimes and the National Institutes of Health. Chance said the disease is grouped under muscular dystrophy even though it is a nerve disease. Chance and Matsunami were not the only scientists to predict that PMP-2- 2 would be the gene responsible for CMT. After publication of the Stanford paper, scientists from Belgium, the Netherlands and Australia also formulated the same hypothesis. Papers from all four research groups will be published in this month's issue of the new British science journal, Nature Genetics. said. from page one "Genes in mice and humans are frequently very similar. Because of this we were able to isolate the region of human equivalency." Chance and his staff cloned DNA sequences from the mouse and then mapped chromosome 17 from the human. After comparing the data, Chance said "the gene was right where we thought it would be." Currently Chance and his staff are working to clone the human gene. "We are now working to fully characterize the gene to learn how abnormalities in its expression cause disease." Chance said he was enthusiastic about the "discovery of the gene as it was an important step in understanding what causes CMT and hopefully will be an important step in th receiving more funding for Utah schools.
