Summary
This study looked at the DNA of 60 people with a family history of hypospadias, a condition where the opening of the urethra is not at the tip of the penis. The goal was to find new genetic changes that might cause the condition. By comparing genomes of affected family members, researchers hope to discover genes involved in sexual development.
