Two further patients with the 1q24 deletion syndrome expand the phenotype: A possible role for the miR199-214 cluster in the skeletal features of the condition.

Abstract excerpt

Submicroscopic deletions within chromosome 1q24q25 are associated with a syndromic phenotype of short stature, brachydactyly, learning difficulties, and facial dysmorphism. The critical region for the deletion phenotype has previously been narrowed to a 1.9 Mb segment containing 13 genes. We describe two further patients with 1q24 microdeletions and the skeletal phenotype, the first of whom has normal intellect,...
