Disruption of Ptpro Causes Childhood-Onset Nephrotic Syndrome
(Cell Press, 2011)
Idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (INS) is a genetically heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, and edema. Because it typically results in end-stage kidney disease, the steroid-resistant ...
Disruption of Alx1 Causes Extreme Microphthalmia and Severe Facial Clefting: Expanding The Spectrum of Autosomal-Recessive Alx-Related Frontonasal Dysplasia
(Cell Press, 2010)
We present an autosomal-recessive frontonasal dysplasia (FND) characterized by bilateral extreme microphthalmia, bilateral oblique facial cleft, complete cleft palate, hypertelorism, wide nasal bridge with hypoplasia of ...
Crim1 Haploinsufficiency Causes Defects In Eye Development In Human And Mouse
(Oxford Univ Press, 2015)
Colobomatous macrophthalmia with microcornea syndrome (MACOM, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) 602499) is an autosomal dominantly inherited malformation of the eye, which is characterized by microcornea with ...
Mutation In Exon 1F Of Plec, Leading To Disruption Of Plectin Isoform 1F, Causes Autosomal-Recessive Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy
(Cell Press, 2010)
Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) is a genetically heterogeneous group of inherited muscular disorders manifesting symmetric, proximal, and slowly progressive muscle weakness. Using Affymetrix 250K SNP Array genotyping ...
Attenuated BMP1 Function Compromises Osteogenesis, Leading to Bone Fragility in Humans and Zebrafish
(Cell Press, 2012)
Bone morphogenetic protein 1 (BMP1) is an astacin metalloprotease with important cellular functions and diverse substrates, including extracellular-matrix proteins and antagonists of some TGF beta superfamily members. ...
Analysis of Centrosome and Dna Damage Response In Plk4 Associated Seckel Syndrome
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017)
Microcephalic primordial dwarfism (MPD) is a group of autosomal recessive inherited single-gene disorders with intrauterine and postnatal global growth failure. Seckel syndrome is the most common form of the MPD. Ten genes ...
Mutations Affecting The Bhlha9 Dna-Binding Domain Cause Mssd, Mesoaxial Synostotic Syndactyly With Phalangeal Reduction, Malik-Percin Type
(Cell Press, 2014)
Mesoaxial synostotic syndactyly, Malik-Percin type (MSSD) (syndactyly type IX) is a rare autosomal-recessive nonsyndromic digit anomaly with only two affected families reported so far. We previously showed that the trait ...
Mutations In Ripk4 Cause The Autosomal-Recessive Form Of Popliteal Pterygium Syndrome
(Cell Press, 2012)
The autosomal-recessive form of popliteal pterygium syndrome, also known as Bartsocas-Papas syndrome, is a rare, but frequently lethal disorder characterized by marked popliteal pterygium associated with multiple congenital ...
