Recessive Robinow syndrome, allelic to dominant brachydactyly type B, is caused by mutation of ROR2

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported homozygous missense mutations in both intracellular and extracellular domains of ROR2 in affected individuals from three unrelated consanguineous families, and a nonsense mutation that removes the tyrosine kinase domain and all subsequent 3' regions of the gene in 14 patients from 7 families from Oman.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutations in PYCR1 cause cutis laxa with progeroid features
