Q

In mutations of the TCOF1 gene, neural crest cell migration is normal, but increased apoptosis and decreased proliferation result in a much reduced population of neural crest cells in the first pharyngeal arch, resulting in hypoplasia of the mandible and facial bones, malformations of the external and middle ears, high or cleft palate, faulty dentition, and coloboma-type defects of the lower eyelid.
