Abstrakt: Treacher Collins syndrome is a mandibulofacial dysostosis caused by mutations in genes involved in ribosome biogenesis and synthesis. TCOF1mutations are observed in ~80% of the patients and are inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Recently, two other genes have been reported in <2% of patients—POLR1Din patients with autosomal dominant inheritance, and POLR1Cin patients with autosomal recessive inheritance.
