AnFBN1Deep Intronic Mutation in a Familial Case of Marfan Syndrome: An Explanation for Genetically Unsolved Cases?
7 Mar 2014
Abstract excerpt
Marfan syndrome (MFS) is caused by mutations in the FBN1 (fibrillin-1) gene, but approximately 10% of MFS cases remain genetically unsolved. Here, we report a new FBN1 mutation in an MFS family that had remained negative after extensive molecular genomic DNA FBN1 testing, including denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography, Sanger sequencing, and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification. Linkage...
