Compound heterozygous mutations in the noncoding RNU4ATAC cause Roifman Syndrome by disrupting minor intron splicing
Roifman Syndrome is a rare congenital disorder characterized by growth retardation, cognitive delay, spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia and antibody deficiency. Here we utilize whole-genome sequencing of Roifman Syndrome patients to reveal compound heterozygous rare variants that disrupt highly conserved positions of the RNU4ATAC small nuclear RNA gene, a minor spliceosome component that is essential...
متن کاملHomozygous and compound-heterozygous mutations in TGDS cause Catel-Manzke syndrome.
Catel-Manzke syndrome is characterized by Pierre Robin sequence and a unique form of bilateral hyperphalangy causing a clinodactyly of the index finger. We describe the identification of homozygous and compound heterozygous mutations in TGDS in seven unrelated individuals with typical Catel-Manzke syndrome by exome sequencing. Six different TGDS mutations were detected: c.892A>G (p.Asn298Asp), ...
متن کاملHomozygous and compound heterozygous mutations at the Werner syndrome locus.
The Werner syndrome (WS) is a rare autosomal recessive progeroid disorder. The Werner syndrome gene (WRN) has recently been identified as a member of the helicase family. Four distinct mutations were previously reported in three Japanese and one Syrian WS pedigrees. The latter mutation was originally described as a 4 bp deletion spanning a spliced junction. It is now shown that this mutation re...
متن کاملRefining the phenotypical and mutational spectrum of Taybi-Linder syndrome.
Taybi-Linder syndrome (TALS, OMIM 210710) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder belonging to the group of microcephalic osteodysplastic primordial dwarfisms (MOPD). This syndrome is characterized by short stature, skeletal anomalies, severe microcephaly with brain malformations and facial dysmorphism, and is caused by mutations in RNU4ATAC. RNU4ATAC is transcribed into a non-coding small nucle...
