Myelomonocytic leukaemia (JMML) in a child with intellectual disability and chromosome 4q deletion
Pediatric Hematology Oncology Journal, 2021 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.

Genomic organization of the neurofibromatosis 1 gene (NF1)
Genomics, 1995 Neurofibromatosis 1 maps to chromosome band 17q11.2, and the NF1 locus has been partially characterized. Even though the full-length NF1 cDNA has been sequenced, the complete genomic structure of the NF1 gene has not been elucidated. The 5' end of NF1 is embedded in a CpG island containing a NotI restriction site, and the remainder of the gene lies in ...

Impacts of NF1 Gene Mutations and Genetic Modifiers in Neurofibromatosis Type 1
Frontiers in Neurology, 2021 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]
Genomics, 1992 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 ...

Multimodality Imaging Features of Breast Carcinoma in Women with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF 1) – A Report of Two Cases [PDF]
Middle East Journal of Cancer, 2021 With a prevalence of approximately 1 out of 2,500 to 4,000 births, neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), also known as von Recklinghausen’s disease, is one of the most prevalent autosomal dominant diseases in humans.

Identification of the neurofibromatosis type 1 gene product. [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1991 The gene for neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) was recently identified by positional cloning. The complete cDNA encodes a polypeptide of 2818 amino acids. To study the NF1 gene product, antibodies were raised against both fusion proteins and synthetic peptides.
