Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Several candidate loci have been suggested as influencing mandibular prognathism (1p22.1, 1p22.2, 1p36, 3q26.2, 5p13-p12, 6q25, 11q22.2-q22.3, 12q23, 12q13.13, and 19p13.2). The goal of this study was to replicate these results in a well-characterized homogeneous sample set. METHODS: Thirty-three single nucleotide polymorphisms spanning all candidate regions were studied in 44 prognathic and 35...
