Performing C-T Measurements

An IBM computer, a HP4145B parametric analyzer, a Micromanipulator 410 capacitance meter, and a Keithley 230 voltage source were networked together to form a test setup to measure the recombination and generation lifetimes of minority carriers. The Zerbst relationships were used to calculate lifetimes. Results indicate that the test setup~has the ability to take accurate data, but when the capacitance-time data was analyzed, the calculated lifetimes were not believable. The problem seems to be the quality of the fabricated capacitors and not the setup

Heterozygous mutations of the kinesin KIF21A in congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles type 1 (CFEOM1)

Congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles type 1 (CFEOM1; OMIM #135700) is an autosomal dominant strabismus disorder associated with defects of the oculomotor nerve. We show that individuals with CFEOM1 harbor heterozygous missense mutations in a kinesin motor protein encoded by KIF21A. We identified six different mutations in 44 of 45 probands. The primary mutational hotspots are in the stalk domain, highlighting an important new role for KIF21A and its stalk in the formation of the oculomotor axis
