skeleton
• the short face allelic series of mutants have shortened cranial length and domed skull with midfacial deficiency
|
• severely affected heterozygotes have premature ossification of one or more cranial base synchondroses
|
• the interfrontal bone is diamond-shaped and prematurely fuses with the nasal bones
|
• some heterozgyotes have significantly receded alveolar bone
|
vision/eye
• a range of eye defects are found including mocrophthalmia and anophthalmia
