Abstract excerpt
Congenital Cataracts, Facial Dysmorphism, and Neuropathy (CCFDN) syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder predominantly found among Vlax Roma populations, caused by a deep intronic founder variant in the CTDP1 gene. This review synthesizes recent advances in understanding the molecular mechanisms of CTDP1 dysfunction, highlighting its central role in transcriptional regulation, RNA splicing, DNA repair,...
