Molecular assay reagents intended to identify mutations in the short stature homeobox (SHOX) gene, located in Xp22.3 which encodes for a protein that regulates the activity of other genes essential for skeletal development. This genetic mutation has been identified in patients with Leri-Weill dyschondrosteosis syndrome, and Langer mesomelic dysplasia.
