aldh7a1 regulates eye and limb development in zebrafish. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Uveal coloboma is a potentially blinding congenital ocular malformation caused by failure of the optic fissure to close during development. Although mutations in numerous genes have been described, these account for a minority of cases, complicating ...

The case of pyridoxine dependent epilepsy misdiagnosed as non-ketotic hyperglycinemia [PDF]
The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2019 Pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE) is a rare but an important condition, since early diagnosis and treatment result in normal or near normal psychomotor development. It is caused by mutations in the Antiquitin (ALDH7A1) gene.

Genome-wide association study identifies ALDH7A1 as a novel susceptibility gene for osteoporosis. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2010 Osteoporosis is a major public health problem. It is mainly characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD) and/or low-trauma osteoporotic fractures (OF), both of which have strong genetic determination.

Clinical diagnosis, treatment, and ALDH7A1 mutations in pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy in three Chinese infants. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder that causes seizures in neonates and infants. Mutations of the ALDH7A1 gene are now recognized as the molecular basis PDE and help to define this disease.

A Genome-Wide Association Study of Rib Number and Thoracolumbar Vertebra Number in a Landrace × Yorkshire Crossbred Pig Population [PDF]
BiologyThe number of thoracolumbar vertebrae (NTLV) and the number of ribs (NR) are economically important traits in pigs due to their influence on carcass length and meat yield. Although VRTN is an established key gene, it fails to fully account for population-
