In Finland the frequency of isolated cleft palate (CP) is higher than that of isolated cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P). This trend contrasts to that in other European countries but its genetic underpinnings are unknown. We performed a genome-wide association study for orofacial clefts, which include CL/P and CP, in the Finnish population. We identified rs570516915, a single nucleotide polymorphism that is highly enriched in Finns and Estonians, as being strongly associated with CP ...
