Expression of RMRP RNA is regulated in chondrocyte hypertrophy and determines chondrogenic differentiation

Abstract Mutations in the RMRP-gene, encoding the lncRNA component of the RNase MRP complex, are the origin of cartilage-hair hypoplasia. Cartilage-hair hypoplasia is associated with severe dwarfism caused by impaired skeletal development. However, it is not clear why mutations in RMRP RNA lead to s...
