Abstract excerpt
Neural tube defects (NTDs) are common, severe congenital malformations. The association between single nucleotide polymorphisms of the VANGL1 gene and NTDs in a Han population of Northern China was principally studied. Missense single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs4839469 c.346G > A p.Ala116Thr and rs34059106 c.1040A > C p.Glu347Ala) of the VANGL1 gene were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing...
