We now report the finding of a mutation in exon IIIc of the FGFR2 gene in a kindred affected with Crouzon syndrome (C1043 to G; Ala344Gly) that is identical to the mutation previously associated with Jackson-Weiss syndrome.
Five different mutations were found including two novel (W290G, C342W) and two previously reported, recurrent mutations for Crouzon syndrome (A344A, S354C), and one new mutation for Jackson-Weiss syndrome (C342R).
Notably, we found a novel FGFR2 p.Asn549Thr mutation in a patient with CS, and a novel FGFR2 p.Ser347Cys mutation in a patient with JWS (thus, this patient was turned out to have an FGFR2-related PS-variant).
