Abstract excerpt
Background: Mutations in the fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) gene are related to skeletal dysplasias (SDs): acondroplasia (ACH), hypochodroplasia (HCH) and type I (TDI) and II (TDII) tanatophoric dysplasias. This study was designed to standardize and implement a high-resolution melting (HRM) technique to identify mutations in patients with these phenotypes. Methods: Initially, FGFR3 gene segments from...
