RHD Alleles in Prenatal Patients from Northern Canada
Principal Investigator: Hannon, Judith L
Licensed Year(s): 2014 2013 2012 2011 2006
Summary: The objectives of this research project are to confirm that the RhD phenotype is appropriately assigned in a population of prenatal patients that has not been studied for the presence of variant RhD gene alleles that would require them to be assigned an Rh-negative status and treated with Rh immune globulin. Samples will be selected for analysis among prenatal samples from the Northwest Territo...


Examining DNA Fingerprinting as an Epidemiology Tool in the Northwest Territories
Principal Investigator: Case, Cheryl A
Licensed Year(s): 2010
Summary: The questions posed are: 1. Did genotyping identify unknown TB contacts or transmissions among cases studied? Examination of the genotype of each isolate of M. tuberculosis from reported cases in the NWT may identify epidemiological links among the studied cases not previously identified through conventional contact tracing. The study will quantitatively review epidemiological links established ...


Genetic Study of Bardet-Biedl Syndrome and Related Disorders
Principal Investigator: Heon, Elise
Licensed Year(s): 2006 2005
Summary: Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (BBS) is a multi-system condition that leads ultimately to blindness. This condition is also linked to shortened life expectancy due to kidney failure. Genital, digit and renal anomalies, obesity and a variable degree of cognitive impairment also characterize this disorder. The researchers have identified the genetic basis of BBS in Rae-Edzo. This study, which will be at leas...


Finding a gene for Bardet-Biedl Syndrom
Principal Investigator: Musarella, Maria A.
Licensed Year(s): 1992
Summary: We plan to study Bardet-Biedl families (with at least 2 affected children) in order to determine if and how the disease is genetically linked. By following the inheritance of a DNA marker in affected families, it is possible to determine whether the disease is gene genetically linked to the DNA marker. A systematic screening of DNA markers (that are distributed over the 22 chromosomes) should th...
