Synpolydactyly phenotypes correlate with size of expansions in HOXD13 polyalanine tract

TL;DR: The remarkable correlation between phenotype and expansion size suggests that expansion of the tract leads to a specific gain of function in the mutant HOXD13 protein, and has interesting implications for the role of polyalanine tracts in the control of transcription.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deletions in HOXD13 Segregate with an Identical, Novel Foot Malformation in Two Unrelated Families

TL;DR: A novel type of mutation is reported in HOXD13, associated in some cases with features of classic SPD and in all cases with a novel foot phenotype, which has interesting implications for the role of HOxD13 in human autopod development.

Genetic Diseases of the Skin

Kurban A
TL;DR: The author reveals that the most common types of genetic disorders are autosomal dominant, with at least two types of recessive and one type of “spatially aggregating” conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synpolydactyly: clinical and molecular advances.

TL;DR: It is concluded that typical SPD features can be delineated from minor clinical variants and a lumping and splitting scheme for SPD phenotypic variants could be useful for the understanding of this interesting malformation.
Journal ArticleDOI

A large Turkish kindred with syndactyly type II (synpolydactyly). 1. Field investigation, clinical and pedigree data.

TL;DR: It is noted that metacarpal and metatarsal involvement and middle phalangeal hypoplasia of the feet are the consistent features of SPD and should be considered as characteristic of this phenotype.

Probable linkage between a congenital cataract locus and the duffy blood group locus.

TL;DR: The large family of Nettleship (1909), which manifests one type of congenital cataract, has been studied in a search for linkage, and there is a strong indication of close linkage with the Duffy locus.
Journal ArticleDOI

The use of dermal configurations in the diagnosis of mongolism

TL;DR: A new method is outlined by which a purely objective diagnosis of mongolism can be made, based on the significant differences in the frequencies of dermal configurations for mONGoloid imbeciles compared with a control series.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Third Interdigital Patterns on the Palms of the General British Population, Mongoloid and Non-Mongoloid Mental Defectives

TL;DR: No significant differences were found in the control population and non-mongoloid defectives with regard to the morphology, asymmetries and frequency of the character in question.
