Abstract excerpt
Pseudoachondroplasia (PSACH) is known as an autosomal dominant disorder associated with mutations in the gene of cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP). The pathomolecular mechanisms of PSACH as a result of C-terminal globular region (CTD) mutations remain unclear. A heterozygous mutation (E559 K) in a Chinese family diagnosed with PSACH was reported in this study. To understand the pathogenesis of this...
