Abstract excerpt
Angiomotin-like 1 (AMOTL1), by regulating cell-cell junctions, cell polarity, and cell migration, plays a critical role in organogenesis and development. Recently, multiple studies have identified two hotspot mutations in AMOTL1, Arg157 (R157) and Pro160 (P160), in more than ten distinct families presenting with a spectrum of congenital defects, including facial dysmorphisms and cardiac abnormalities. However,...
