Exclusion of allelism of Noonan syndrome and neurofibromatosis-type 1 in a large family with Noonan syndrome-neurofibromatosis association.

A large four-generation family with Noonan syndrome (NS) and neurofibromatosis-type 1 ( NF1) was studied for clinical association between the two diseases and for linkage analysis with polymorphic DNA markers of the NF1 region in 17q11. 2. Nonrandom segregation between NS and NF1 phenotypes was observed. Neurofibromatosis was tightly linked to NF1 markers, whereas Noonan syndrome was found not be allelic to NF1. These results suggest that two mutations at two independent but closely linked loci are the cause of neurofibromatosis-Noonan syndrome (NF-NS) association in this family.[1]
