Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Rare mutations in multiple genes have been associated with human neural tube defects (NTDs), but their causative roles in NTDs disease are poorly understood. Insufficiency of the ribosomal biogenesis gene treacle ribosome biogenesis factor 1(Tcof1) results in cranial NTDs and craniofacial malformations in mice. Here, we aimed to identify genetic association of TCOF1 with human NTDs. METHODS:...
