Identification and Functional Evaluation of a Novel TBX4 Mutation Underlies Small Patella Syndrome.

Abstract excerpt

Small patella syndrome (SPS) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations in TBX4 gene which encodes a transcription factor of FGF10. However, how TBX4 mutations result in SPS is poorly understood. Here, a novel TBX4 mutation c.1241C>T (p.P414L) was identified in a SPS family and series of studies were performed to evaluate the influences of TBX4 mutations (including c.1241C>T and two known mutations...
