Bardet-Biedl syndrome 4 

Editors note:  NO IRB APPROVAL PROVIDED

We have recently cloned a new gene  and suspect that it could be responsible for the Bardet-Biedl syndrome 4 (BBS4). Please, send any reagents (cells, DNA samples etc) from BBS4 patients for mutational analysis on a collaborative basis.

Many thanks.
