Among them, the signal on OCU15, at position 62.00–62.25 Mb, encompassed the centromere protein E (CENPE) gene, which is linked to microcephalic primordial dwarfism, a human disorder characterised by severe growth retardation and skeletal dysplasia (Khetarpal et al., 2016). This evidence concerns the gene CENPE and microcephalic primordial dwarfism.
