Is the Novel Sckl3 at 14Q23 the Predominant Seckel Locus?
(Nature Publishing Group, 2003)
Seckel syndrome (SCKL) is a rare disease with wide phenotypic heterogeneity. A locus (SCKL1) has been identified at 3q and another (SCKL2) at 18p, both in single kindreds afflicted with the syndrome. We report here a novel ...
