The search for genes responsible for the abnormal development of the left-right (L/R) asymmetry has been conducted but no definite results have been reported. Recently, two human homologus mouse lefty1 genes, LEFTY A and LEFTY B, were analyzed for mutations in patients with the L/R anomalies. However, only two mutations were found in a survey of 126 patients. We collected genomic DNA from 10 children with Ivemark...
