Abstract excerpt
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is one of the most common autosomal dominant disorders, and is due to mutations within the NF1 gene on chromosome 17q11.2. Only the middle 400 amino acids of the associated protein (neurofibromin) have a known function, comprising a GTPase-activating-protein (GAP) domain. The large gene size and the fact that approximately half of cases are due to new mutation render mutation...
