Abstract excerpt
Thanatophoric dysplasia is a lethal chondrodysplasia caused by heterozygous fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) missense mutations. Mutations have been identified in several domains of the receptor. The most frequent mutations (p.R248C, p.S249C, p.Y373C) create a cysteine residue within the extracellular domain, whereas the others eliminate the termination codon (p.X807R, p.X807C, p.X807G, p.X807S,...
