1 Apr 2025
Abstract excerpt
Loss of function variants in the NF1 gene cause neurofibromatosis type 1, a genetic disorder characterized by complete penetrance, characteristic physical exam findings, and a substantially increased risk for malignancy. However, our understanding of the disorder is based on patients ascertained through phenotype-first approaches, which estimate prevalence at 1 in 3000. Leveraging a genotype-first approach in...
