Abstract excerpt
Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) is a skeletal disorder caused by heterozygous mutations in the runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) gene. We evaluated the phenotypes of eight Chinese patients with CCD from three unrelated families followed by analysis of the RUNX2 genes. Three different RUNX2 frameshift mutations were identified. Two of the mutations are novel (c.887insC and c.592delA) and one (c.90insC) has...
