Myelomonocytic leukaemia (JMML) in a child with intellectual disability and chromosome 4q deletion
JMML is a rare aggressive type of leukaemia seen in children. It is often seen with syndromes such as Noonan, and neurofibromatosis type 1. Rarely it can be a sporadic event.

Impacts of NF1 Gene Mutations and Genetic Modifiers in Neurofibromatosis Type 1
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a tumor predisposition genetic disorder that directly affects more than 1 in 3,000 individuals worldwide. It results from mutations of the NF1 gene and shows almost complete penetrance.

The gene for a novel epidermal antigen maps near the neurofibromatosis 1 gene [PDF]
Recently the M17S1 gene, encoding an epidermal antigen thought to play a role in cell adhesion, was mapped to chromosome bands 17q11-q12, placing it in the vicinity of the gene for the genetic disorder neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1). The pleomorphic cutaneous lesions of NF1 and the precedent for other genes being embedded within the NF1 gene prompted us to ...
