Abstract excerpt
The X-linked form of spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia tarda (SEDT, OMIM# 313400) is a rare osteochondrodysplasia caused by mutations in the SEDL (TRAPPC2, OMIM# 300202) gene. It is clinically characterized by disproportionate short stature, barrel-shaped chests and early development of degenerative joint disease. We report here a novel mutation in the intron 3 splice-donor site (c. 93+5G>C) segregated in an X-link...
