Abstract excerpt
Mutations in ectodysplasin, the protein product of the EDA or ED1 gene, cause X-linked anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. From sixteen families we have identified thirteen mutations, of which nine were novel: a deletion of the entire exon 1, altered splicing site in intron 7 (IVS-2A-->G) and in intron 9 (IVS9+8 C-->G), deletion of 8 bp (1967-1974 nt), four missense mutations (G255C, G255D, W274G, C332Y) and...
