Abstract excerpt
Objective : The aim of this work was to fine-map the region 6q23.1, which obtained suggestive linkage signal (logarithm of the odds [LOD] score = 2.22 under a recessive model) to cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL±P) in our previous genome-wide linkage scan to identify possible genetic variants that may contribute to CL±P. Design : We used densely spaced markers spanning the entire 6q23.1 region to test...
