Abstract excerpt
Opsismodysplasia is an autosomal recessive skeletal disorder characterized by facial dysmorphism, micromelia, platyspondyly and retarded bone maturation. Recently, mutations in the gene encoding inositol polyphosphate phosphatase-like 1 (INPPL1) are found in several families with opsismodysplasia by a homozygosity mapping, followed by whole genome sequencing. We performed an exome sequencing in two unrelated...
