Abstract
The Marfan database is a software that contains routines for the analy sis of mutations identified in the FBN1 gene that encodes fibrillin-1. Mutations in this gene are associated not only with Marfan syndrome b ut also with a spectrum of overlapping disorders. The third version of the Marfan database contains 137 entries. The software has been modif ied to accommodate four new routines and is now accessible on the Worl d Wide Web at http://www.umd.necker.fr.
