A novel small deletion mutation in RUNX2 gene in one Chinese family with cleidocranial dysplasia.

Abstract excerpt

Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) is a skeletal dysplasia with autosomal-dominant inheritance. The runt related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) gene is the only gene in which mutations are known to cause CCD. We report identification of a novel small deletions mutation in the RUNX2 gene in a Chinese family with CCD.
