Variants in IRF6 can lead to Van der Woude syndrome and popliteal pterygium syndrome. Furthermore, genes upstream and downstream of IRF6, including GRHL3 and TP63, are also associated with orofacial clefting. Additionally, a variant in an enhancer (MCS9.7) that regulates IRF6 is associated with risk for isolated orofacial clefting. This variant (rs642961) abrogates AP2A protein binding at MCS9.7. Here, we found...
