Abstract excerpt
The RASopathies are a family of clinically related disorders caused by mutations affecting genes participating in the RAS-MAPK signaling cascade. Among them, Noonan syndrome (NS) and Noonan syndrome with multiple lentigines (NSML) are allelic conditions principally associated with dominant mutations in PTPN11, which encodes the nonreceptor SH2 domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP2. Individual PTPN11...
