Oligodontia
Gene: LEF1
In mice, targeted inactivation of the LEF1 gene results in a complete block of development of multiple ectodermal appendages. One report of two unrelated patients with 4q25 de novo deletion encompassing LEF1 , associated with severe oligodontia of primary and permanent dentition, hypotrichosis and hypohidrosis compatible with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. So far, no pathogenic variants or variations involving the LEF1 gene have been reported in human.
