Genotype-phenotype associations in Alström syndrome: a systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]
Background Alström syndrome (ALMS; #203800) is an ultrarare monogenic recessive disease. This syndrome is associated with variants in the ALMS1 gene, which encodes a centrosome-associated protein involved in the regulation of several ciliary and ...
