Involvement of GTA protein NC2beta in neuroblastoma pathogenesis suggests that it physiologically participates in the regulation of cell proliferationCinzia Di Pietro
Dipartimento di Scienze Biomediche, Sezione di Biologia generale, Biologia Cellulare, Genetica Molecolare G Sichel, Unità di Biologia Genomica e dei Sistemi Complessi, Genetica, Bioinformatica, Universita di Catania, 95123 Catania, Italy
Mol Cancer 7:52. 2008..This complexity contrasts with the simple mechanical role that these proteins are believed to perform and suggests a still uncharacterized participation to important biological functions, such as the control of cell proliferation...
Synpolydactyly and HOXD13 polyalanine repeat: addition of 2 alanine residues is without clinical consequencesSajid Malik

An insight into the phylogenetic history of HOX linked gene families in vertebratesAmir Ali Abbasi
Institute of Human Genetics, Philipps University, Bahnhofstrasse 7 D35037 Marburg, Germany

Spectrum of the acrocallosal syndromeRainer Koenig
Department of Human Genetics, Johann Wolfgang Goethe University, Frankfurt, Germany
Am J Med Genet 108:7-11. 2002..Cranial cysts were also seen in 10/34 published cases of ACS. Thus, intracerebral cysts are a common finding in ACS and may serve in differentiating ACS from Greig cephalopolysyndactyly syndrome...
A novel type of autosomal recessive syndactyly: clinical and molecular studies in a family of Pakistani originSajid Malik
Zentrum für Humangenetik, Philipps Universitat Marburg, Marburg, Germany
Am J Med Genet A 126:61-7. 2004..We show that the phenotype in our family is not linked to chromosomal regions 2q34-q36, 2q31, and 6q22-q23 encompassing loci for syndactyly types I, II, and III...
Human limb malformations; an approach to the molecular basis of developmentKarl Heinz Grzeschik
Institut fuer Humangenetik der Philipps Universitaet, Marburg, Deutschland
Int J Dev Biol 46:983-91. 2002....
IFAP syndrome is caused by deficiency in MBTPS2, an intramembrane zinc metalloprotease essential for cholesterol homeostasis and ER stress responseFrank Oeffner
Department of Human Genetics, Philipps Universitat, Marburg 35037, Germany
Am J Hum Genet 84:459-67. 2009..Our findings indicate that the phenotypic expression of IFAP syndrome is quantitatively related to a reduced function of a key cellular regulatory system affecting cholesterol homeostasis and ability to cope with ER stress...
Human intronic enhancers control distinct sub-domains of Gli3 expression during mouse CNS and limb developmentAmir A Abbasi
Department of Human Genetics, Philipps Universitat Marburg, 35037 Marburg, Germany
BMC Dev Biol 10:44. 2010..From these studies it has emerged, that Gli3 expression must be subject to a tight spatiotemporal regulation. However, the genetic mechanisms and the cis-acting elements controlling the expression of Gli3 remained largely unknown...
Congenital, low penetrance lymphedema of lower limbs maps to chromosome 6q16.2-q22.1 in an inbred Pakistani familySajid Malik
Zentrum für Humangenetik, Philipps Universitat Marburg, Bahnhofstr 7, 35037, Marburg, Germany
Hum Genet 123:197-205. 2008..Our study provides an evidence of a second locus for lymphedema type I. The discovery of the underlying gene could be helpful for the understanding of this heterogeneous hereditary condition...
An Xp11.23 deletion containing PORCN may also cause angioma serpiginosum, a cosmetic skin disease associated with extreme skewing of X-inactivationGunnar Houge
Eur J Hum Genet 16:1027-8. 2008
Multiple familial trichoepithelioma caused by mutations in the cylindromatosis tumor suppressor geneAicha Salhi
Department of Dermatology, University of Algiers, Algiers, Algeria
Cancer Res 64:5113-7. 2004..Hence, mutations of the tumor suppressor gene CYLD at 16q12-q13 may give rise to familial TE indistinguishable from the phenotype assigned to 9p21...

, , Bahnhofstr. 7, 35037 Marburg, Germany
Eur J Hum Genet 13:1268-74. 2005..20 Mb. Since the same phenotype appears not to be linked to this locus in a German family, we predict genetic heterogeneity in zygodactyly and propose to designate the 3p21.31 locus as ZD1 (i.e., zygodactyly 1)...
