Genetic etiology of renal agenesis: fine mapping of Renag1 and identification of Kit as the candidate functional gene.

Genetic etiology of renal agenesis: fine mapping of Renag1 and identification of Kit as the candidate functional gene.

Congenital anomalies of the kidney and urogenital tract (CAKUT) occur in approximately 0.5% of live births and represent the most frequent cause of end-stage renal disease in neonates and children.
