Heterozygous deletion of the Williams-Beuren syndrome critical interval in mice recapitulates most features of the human disorder

Williams-Beuren syndrome is a developmental multisystemic disorder caused by a recurrent 1.55-1.83 Mb heterozygous deletion on human chromosome band 7q11.23. Through chromosomal engineering with the cre-loxP system, we have generated mice with an almost complete deletion (CD) of the conserved synten...
