Genetic factors in esophageal atresia, tracheo-esophageal fistula and the VACTERL association: roles for FOXF1 and the 16q24.1 FOX transcription factor gene cluster, and review of the literatureCharles Shaw-Smith
Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, Hinxton, Cambridge, UK
Eur J Med Genet 53:6-13. 2010..This article reviews these new data alongside other genetic causes of syndromic esophageal atresia, and also highlights information from relevant mouse models, particularly those for genes in the Sonic Hedgehog pathway...
Microdeletion encompassing MAPT at chromosome 17q21.3 is associated with developmental delay and learning disabilityCharles Shaw-Smith
University of Cambridge Department of Medical Genetics, Addenbrooke s Hospital, Cambridge CB2 2QQ, UK
Nat Genet 38:1032-7. 2006..The orientation of LCRs flanking the deleted segment in inversion heterozygotes is likely to facilitate the generation of this microdeletion by means of non-allelic homologous recombination...
Growth deficiency in oculodigitoesophagoduodenal (Feingold) syndrome--case report and review of the literatureCharles Shaw-Smith
Department of Medical Genetics, Addenbrooke s Hospital, Cambridge CB2 2QQ, UK
Clin Dysmorphol 14:155-8. 2005..7%) had height on or below the 0.4th centile, while nine (50%) had height on or below the 10th centile. We suggest that short stature is likely to be a phenotypic feature of Feingold syndrome...

Esophageal atresia, hypoplasia of zygomatic complex, microcephaly, cup-shaped ears, congenital heart defect, and mental retardation--new MCA/MR syndrome in two affected sibs and a mildly affected mother?Dagmar Wieczorek
Institut fur Humangenetik, Universitatsklinikum Essen, Germany, and Department of Medical Genetics, Addenbrooke s Hospital, Cambridge, UK
Am J Med Genet A 143:1135-42. 2007..We discuss autosomal dominant inheritance with variable expressivity or mosaicism in the mother as the likely genetic mechanism in this new multiple congenital anomaly/mental retardation (MCA/MR) syndrome...
The DNA sequence of the human X chromosomeMark T Ross
The Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, Wellcome Trust Genome Campus, Hinxton, Cambridge CB10 1SA, UK
Nature 434:325-37. 2005..Of this number, 168 have been explained by mutations in 113 X-linked genes, which in many cases were characterized with the aid of the DNA sequence...

Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, 7 Cambridge Center, Massachusetts 02142, USA
Nature 440:1045-9. 2006..Examination of the main classes of duplicated segments provides insight into the dynamics underlying expansion of chromosome-specific, low-copy repeats in the human genome...
3q29 microdeletion syndrome: clinical and molecular characterization of a new syndromeLionel Willatt
Department of Medical Genetics, Addenbrooke's Hospital, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom
Am J Hum Genet 77:154-60. 2005..The presence of two nearly identical low-copy repeat sequences in BAC clones on each side of the deletion breakpoint suggests that nonallelic homologous recombination is the likely mechanism of disease causation in this syndrome...
Array-based comparative genomic hybridization for investigating chromosomal abnormalities in patients with learning disability: systematic review meta-analysis of diagnostic and false-positive yieldsSubu Subramonia Iyer
Public Health Genetics Unit, Cambridge, United Kingdom
Genet Med 9:74-9. 2007..This paper reports the results of an evaluation of this emerging technology and discusses the challenges faced in conducting the evaluation...
