MSX1 Mutation in Witkop Syndrome; A Case Report
The Witkop syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the absence of several teeth and abnormalities of the nails. This is the first report of a rare genetic tooth and nail syndrome diagnosed in a 2.5-year-old boy with early exfoliation of the primary canine, absence of the primary incisors, and nail dysplasia. A homozygous mutation was identified in 3’-UTR of MSX1 gene in ...
متن کاملMutation analysis of connexin 50 gene among Iranian families with autosomal dominant cataracts
Objective(s): Childhood cataract is a genetically heterogeneous eye disorder that results in visual impairment. The aim of this study was to identify the genetic mutations of connexin 50 gene among Iranian families suffered from autosomal dominant congenital cataracts (ADCC). Materials and Methods: Families, having at least two members with bilateral familial congenital cataract, were selected ...
متن کاملNovel autosomal dominant TNNT1 mutation causing nemaline myopathy
BACKGROUND Nemaline myopathy (NEM) is one of the three major forms of congenital myopathy and is characterized by diffuse muscle weakness, hypotonia, respiratory insufficiency, and the presence of nemaline rod structures on muscle biopsy. Mutations in troponin T1 (TNNT1) is 1 of 10 genes known to cause NEM. To date, only homozygous nonsense mutations or compound heterozygous truncating or inter...
متن کاملNonsense mutation in the CRYBB2 gene causing autosomal dominant progressive polymorphic congenital coronary cataracts
PURPOSE We sought to identify the genetic defect in a large, five-generation Chinese family with autosomal dominant progressive polymorphic congenital coronary cataracts and to examine the clinical features in detail. METHODS Clinical and ophthalmologic examinations were conducted on family members. All members were genotyped with microsatellite markers at loci previously associated with cata...
متن کاملMutation G61C in the CRYGD gene causing autosomal dominant congenital coralliform cataracts
PURPOSE We sought to identify the genetic defect in a four-generation Chinese family with autosomal dominant congenital coralliform cataracts and demonstrate the functional analysis of a candidate gene in the family. METHODS Family history data were recorded. Clinical and ophthalmologic examinations were performed on affected and unaffected family members. All the members were genotyped with ...
