SIX3 mutations with holoprosencephaly.

Abstract excerpt

Here, we report six Brazilian patients with holoprosencephaly caused by SIX3 mutations. Missense mutations were more common than frameshift mutations. Comparison of patients with missense versus frameshift mutations was essentially unremarkable. Our cases suggest that SIX3 mutations result in a more severe phenotype than other gene mutations for holoprosencephaly. One patient had a double SIX3 mutation, which has...
