Leukocyte cDNA analysis of NSD1 derived from confirmed Sotos syndrome patients.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Haploinsufficiency of the NSD1 gene leads to Sotos syndrome (Sos), which is characterised by excessive growth, especially during childhood, distinct craniofacial features and variable degree of mental impairment. A wide spectrum of NSD1 mutations have been described in Sos patients, ranging from more than 100 different single nucleotide changes, to partial gene deletions, and to microdeletions of...
