Identification of rare PTCH1 nonsense variant causing orofacial cleft in a Chinese family and an up-to-date genotype-phenotype analysis

The Patched 1 (PTCH1) gene encodes a membrane receptor involved in the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway, an abnormal state of which may result in congenital defects or human tumors. In this study, we conducted whole-exome sequencing on a three-generation Chinese family characterized with variable pen...
