The mast cell - neurofibromatosis connection
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant disorder affecting 1/3000 individuals worldwide. It results from germline mutations of the neurofibromin gene and it is fully penetrant by the age of 5. Neurofibromin is a 2818 amino acid protein that is produced in many cell types, but its lev...
