▶Association between PTCH1 and RAD54B single‐nucleotide polymorphisms and non‐syndromic orofacial clefts in a northern Chinese populationAssociationN=1,062Xiaotong Liu et al.(2018)· The Journal of Gene Medicine
This case-control association study examined six SNPs (rs10512248 in PTCH1, rs12681366 and rs958447 in RAD54B, rs13317 in FGFR1, rs1838105 and rs4968247 in WNT9B) in 596 NSOC patients and 466 controls from a Northern Chinese population. Two SNPs showed significant associations with non-syndromic orofacial clefts: PTCH1 rs10512248 (P=0.020) and RAD54B rs12681366, where the CT genotype showed decreased NSOC risk (OR=0.62, 95%CI=0.46-0.82, P=0.001). This replication study confirms GWAS findings in a Northern Chinese population and suggests RAD54B rs12681366 plays a protective role against orofacial clefts.
About CHST11
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the sulfotransferase 2 family. It is localized to the golgi membrane, and catalyzes the transfer of sulfate to position 4 of the N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) residue of chondroitin. Chondroitin sulfate constitutes the predominant proteoglycan present in cartilage, and is distributed on the surfaces of many cells and extracellular matrices. A chromosomal translocation involving this gene and IgH, t(12;14)(q23;q32), has been reported in a patient with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
