Different disorders have been classified as PMEs. Of these, the group of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs) comprise an entity that has onset in childhood, being the most common cause of neurodegeneration in children. The primary aim of this thesis was to dissect the molecular genetic ... VO - IS - SP - OP - KW - lääketieteellinen genetiikka N1 - PP - ER -
