Some people with Aarskog syndrome are born with more serious abnormalities, such as heart defects or a cleft lip with or without an opening in the roof of the mouth (cleft palate). Most males with Aarskog syndrome have a shawl scrotum, in which the scrotum surrounds the penis. Less often, they have undescended testes (cryptorchidism) or a soft out-pouching around the belly-button (umbilical hernia) or in the lower abdomen (inguinal hernia).…

    The CFTR protein is responsible for functioning as a channel for chloride ions (salt) in and out of cells. Changes in the CFTR gene can consequently change the quality and structure of the protein CFTR being created. The CFTR gene has 27 segments called exons which produce a complete mRNA message. The message is then translated into a chain amino acids which take the structure according to the message. Normally, the amino acids will produce a CFTR protein that will position in the cell membrane and function as a channel for ions. Any mutation in the gene or incorrect sequencing prohibits the channel from functioning and being positioned in the membrane adequately. Over 1,000 mutations of the CFTR gene is responsible for CF, however, the most common are due to the deletion of 3 nucleotides in the gene. The 3 nucleotides are responsible for the production of the amino acid (phenylalanine). This is denoted as ∆F508 and is found in 90% of CF…
