ENU mutagenesis reveals a novel phenotype of reduced limb strength in mice lacking fibrillin 2.

ENU mutagenesis reveals a novel phenotype of reduced limb strength in mice lacking fibrillin 2.

<h4>Background</h4>Fibrillins 1 (FBN1) and 2 (FBN2) are components of microfibrils, microfilaments that are present in many connective tissues, either alone or in association with elastin. Marfan's syndrome and congenital contractural arachnodactyly (CCA) result from dominant mutati...
