Abstract excerpt
The Branchio-oto-renal (BOR) syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by branchial clefts, preauricular sinuses, hearing loss, and renal anomalies. Recent studies have shown that mutations in EYA1 are associated with BOR. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms by which mutations in the EYA1 gene cause BOR syndrome are unknown. We have investigated 12 unrelated Caucasian families for...
