Abstract excerpt
Apert syndrome, acrocephalosyndactyly Type I, is an autosomal dominant craniosynostosis comprising acrocephaly, facial dysmorphism and severe syndactyly of the hands and feet. Missense mutations at codons 252 and 253 at 5'-end on exon 7 of fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) 2 have been identified in a large number of patients with Apert syndrome. In this study, nucleotide sequences on the intron 6 were...
