Mutations in the human JAGGED1 gene cause Alagille syndrome, an autosomal dominant developmental disorder. The gene encodes a transmembrane protein which is a ligand of Notch receptors. We report 23 mutations in previously undescribed probands, including 15 novel mutations and 8 recurrent mutations.
We have studied an infant with cloverleaf skull, proptosis, radioulnar synostosis and broad thumbs and great toes diagnosed as Pfeiffer syndrome type 2. However, there were many overlapping findings with Antley-Bixler syndrome. The patient was found to have a G to T mutation in codon 290 exon 7 of t
