Abstract excerpt
Silver-Russell syndrome (SRS) describes a uniform malformation syndrome characterized by intrauterine and postnatal growth restriction and morphological abnormalities including a small triangular face, relative macrocephaly, asymmetry of the head and limbs, and clinodactyly V. In >38% of SRS cases a hypomethylation of the H19/IGF2 DMR in 11p15 can be detected. Recently, ZFP57 mutations have been identified as a...
