Subj:   RE: DIAG, CALL: genetic testing on late onset blindness

From: Ian Macdonald <macdonal@GPU.SRV.UALBERTA.CA>
horoideremia: Our laboratory is actively involved in mutation analysis
in Canadian families with choroideremia. We have identified the mutation
in the large McCulloch pedigrees reported in the 1940's. As the family is
scattered across the US and Canada, if there are diagnostic labs
interviewing parts of the family, we would be pleased to provide you with
the data to use in a PCR-based analysis to determine carrier status.

Subj:   CALL: human chondrosarcoma

From: GOSSENJ <gossenj%am.vesta.umc@APOU01.AKZONOBEL.NL>

We are looking for a human chondrosarcoma cell line or transformed human
chondrocytes expressing cartilage specific proteins. Does anyone have such a
cell line or cells and, in addition, would he/she also be willing to send
them to us?

Thanks in advance,

Jan Gossen
