Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Fibrillin-1, the major constituent of extracellular microfibrils, plays an important role in the molecular pathogenesis of Marfan syndrome (MFS, #54700). The aim of this study was to analyze protein models of the mutation of the fibrillin-1 (FBN1) gene on Arg545Cys and Arg1530Cys which...
