Further delineation of the phenotype of chromosome 14q13 deletions: (positional) involvement of FOXG1 appears the main determinant of phenotype severity, with no evidence for a holoprosencephaly locus.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Deletions including chromosome 14 band q13 have been linked to variable phenotypes. With current molecular methods the authors aim to elucidate a genotype-phenotype correlation by accurately determining the size and location of the deletions and the associated phenotype. METHODS: Here the authors report the molecular karyotyping and phenotypic description of seven patients with overlapping deletions...
