## Background: Nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (cl/p) is a common complex birth defect caused by the interaction between multiple genes and environmental factors. ## Methods: Five hundred and eighty-seven single nucleotide polymorphisms in 40 candidate genes related to orofaci

✦ Synopsis
Abstract
Mutations in sterile alpha motif (SAM) domain of TP63 have been reported to be associated with ankyloblepharon‐ectodermal dysplasia‐cleft lip/palate syndrome and Rapp‐Hodgkin syndrome. SAM domain, a protein–protein interaction module, is found in cytoplasmic signaling proteins and several transcriptional regulatory proteins which are involved in development and differentiation. Here, we report on a SAM domain mutation (p.Asp564His) in TP63 that predisposed the patients to have nonsyndromic cleft palate and nonsyndromic cleft lip and palate. © 2011 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

Nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCLP) is one of the most common human malformations with an average prevalence of 1 in 1,000 live births. The cause(s) of NSCLP remain unclear as the relative roles of genes, of the environment, and/or of chance alone are unknown. The purpose of
## Abstract Nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) is a common birth defect due to both genetic and environmental factors. Whorl lip print patterns are circular grooves on the central upper lip and/or the left and right lower lip. To determine if whorls are more common in famili
Nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) affects approximately 1 in 1,000 births. Genetic studies have provided evidence for the role of several genes and candidate loci in clefting; however, conflicting results have frequently been obtained and much have to be done to unravel the
## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** Nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NCL/P) is a common structural malformation with a complex and multifactorial etiology. It has been shown that maternal psychological stress in the periconceptional period can contribute to an increase in the risk of NC
