Abstract excerpt
Van der Woude syndrome (VWS) shows an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance with two known candidate genes, IRF6 and GRHL3. In this study, by employing genome-wide linkage analyses on two VWS affected families, we report the cosegregation of an intronic rare variant in NOL4 in one family, and a haplotype consisting of three variants in the noncoding region of IRF6 (introns 1, 8 and 3'UTR) in the other family....
