Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To identify the genetic defect in a four-generation pedigree with X-linked recessive spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia tarda (SEDT) from Southwest China. METHODS: Linkage analysis with one panel of fluorescently labeled microsatellite markers on chromosome X and mutation screening of SEDL gene by direct sequencing were performed. RESULTS: Linkage between SEDT and Xp22.2-Xp23.1 was established with maximum...
