Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To identify mutations of interferon regulatory factor 6 (IRF6) gene in Van der Woude syndrome (VWS) patients in China. METHODS: Three Chinese VWS families were screened to IRF6 gene mutation via PCR and sequence techniques. After amplification of exons 1-8 and their flanking splice junctions and part of exon 9 of the IRF6 gene by polymerase chain reaction, mutations were detected by direct sequencing....
