Achondroplasia is defined by recurrent G380R mutations of FGFR3G A Bellus
Center for Medical Genetics, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore
Am J Hum Genet 56:368-73. 1995..The homogeneity of mutations in achondroplasia is unprecedented for an autosomal dominant disorder and may explain the relative lack of heterogeneity in the achondroplasia phenotype...

Center for Medical Genetics, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21287
Hum Mol Genet 3:787-92. 1994..The establishment of closely linked markers will facilitate positional cloning of the achondroplasia gene and permit prenatal diagnosis of homozygous achondroplasia for at risk couples...
Evidence for an association between markers on chromosome 19q and non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate in two groups of multiplex familiesD F Wyszynski

Hum Genet 99:22-6. 1997..001) and for allele 13 of the D19S178 marker in the Mexican data set (P = 0.004). These results support an association, possibly due to linkage disequilibrium, between chromosome 19 markers and a putative NSCL/P locus...

Predoctoral Program in Human Genetics and Molecular Biology, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
Ann Hum Genet 69:1-8. 2005..Since there is no evidence that particular mutations, or classes of mutation, are associated with the variation (p > 0.5), further work is required to identify the elements associated with the LMX1B gene that mediate phenotypic severity...
