Tobin JL et al. - We propose a model whereby Bbs proteins modulate NCC migration, contributing to craniofacial morphogenesis and development of the enteric nervous system. These migration defects also explain the association of Hirschsprung's disease (HD) with BBS. Moreover, this is a previously undescribed method of using characterization of facial dysmorphology as a basis for investigating the pathomechanism of CF development in dysmorphic syndromes.
