Abstract excerpt
X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (XLHED) is the most common form of the ectodermal dysplasias characterised by an abnormal development of eccrine sweat glands, hair and teeth. The ED1 gene responsible for the disorder undergoes extensive alternative splicing and to date few studies have concerned the full length transcript. We screened 52 unrelated families or sporadic cases for mutation in the full...
