    Am J Med Genet 79:294-304. 1998
    ..Nevertheless, the hypothesis of locus heterogeneity is testable; at the moment we are inclined to favor the hypothesis of allele heterogeneity. An international effort is required to map, isolate, and sequence the causal gene or genes...

    Am J Med Genet 115:269-86. 2002
    ..If cause is unknown, the presumption of pleiotropy is less certain, and the fetus/infant may be said to have an "association" with low empiric recurrence risk...

    Department of Pediatrics, The Children s Hospital of Philadelphia, University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, Philadelphia, USA
    Am J Hum Genet 63:703-10. 1998
    ..These data suggest that this conserved domain of the B-box proteins may play a fundamental role in the pathogenesis of Opitz syndrome and in morphogenetic events at the midline during blastogenesis...
