Abstract excerpt
The genetic basis of congenital heart malformations associated with disruption of left-right (L-R) asymmetry is broad and heterogenous, with variants in over 25 genes implicated thus far. Of these, deleterious variants in the Growth/Differentiation Factor 1 (GDF1) gene have been shown to cause heterotaxy with varied complex heart malformations of left-right patterning, in 23 individuals reported to date, either...
