Further evidence of a mutation in CDC42 as a cause of a recognizable syndromic form of thrombocytopenia.

Abstract excerpt

We previously documented a girl with macrothrombocytopenia and developmental delay who carried a de novo mutation in CDC42, which plays pivotal roles in the cell cycle and the formation of the actin cytoskeleton. The phenotype of mice lacking Cdc42 was strikingly similar to that of the reported patient, indicating that the mutation in CDC42 causes a new syndromic form of thrombocytopenia. We, herein, report...
