Abstract
The work that I shall report on today has occupied much of the effort in our laboratory for the past six or seven years. It has represented a collaborative effort of Anatol Morell, Irmin Sternlieb, Richard Stockert, C. J. A. van den Hamer, Gregory Gregoriadis, all working in my laboratory, and Gilbert Ashwell and his collaborators in Bethesda1– 10.
The research reported in this chapter was supported, in part, by grant AM 1059, National Institute of Arthritis, Metabolism and Digestive Diseases of the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare and by the Foundation for the Study of Wilson’s Disease, Inc.
