Molecular Genetics

By sequencing the most likely functional positional candidate gene from the mapped region (see Mapping section), Littlejohn et al. (2014) identified a causal mutation as a "nonsynonymous SNP in exon 5 [that] encodes a p.Cys221Gly substitution highly conserved across vertebrates and other structurally related hormones, disrupting one of three disulphide bonds defining the three-dimensional (3D) structure of mature prolactin hormone" (ss1067289409; chr23:35105313A>C)
