Contiguous gene deletions involving EFNB1, OPHN1, PJA1 and EDA in patients with craniofrontonasal syndrome.

Abstract excerpt

Craniofrontonasal syndrome (CFNS [MIM 304110]) is an X-linked malformation syndrome characterized by craniofrontonasal dysplasia and extracranial manifestations in heterozygous females. In the majority of patients CFNS is caused by mutations in the EFNB1 gene (MIM 300035). We identified three girls with classical CFNS and mild developmental delay harboring de novo deletions of the EFNB1 gene. Applying haplotype...
