Abstract excerpt
Adams-Oliver syndrome (AOS) is a rare, autosomal-dominant or -recessive disorder characterized primarily by aplasia cutis congenita and terminal transverse limb defects. Recently, we demonstrated that homozygous mutations in DOCK6 cause an autosomal-recessive form of AOS. In this study, we sought to determine the contribution of DOCK6 mutations to the etiology of AOS in several consanguineous families. In two of...
