Mutations in the FBN1 gene have been characterised in patients affected by Marfan syndrome and Marfan-related disorders. Starting with genomic DNA, we analysed the FBN1 gene using PCR, SSCP and/or dHPLC analysis, and automatic sequencing of abnormal bands/peaks, in a consecutive series of 508 patien

Marfan syndrome (MFS), a multisystem autosomal-dominant disorder, is characterized by mutations of the fibrillin-1 (FBNI) gene and by abnormal patterns of synthesis, secretion, and matrix deposition of the fibrillin protein. To determine the sensitivity and specificity of fibrillin protein abnormali

## Abstract In order to evaluate the contribution of __FBN1, FBN2, TGFBR1__, and __TGFBR2__ mutations to the Marfan syndrome (MFS) phenotype, the four genes were analyzed by direct sequencing in 49 patients with MFS or suspected MFS as a cohort study. A total of 27 __FBN1__ mutations (22 novel) in
