Novel TBX5 mutations and molecular mechanism for Holt-Oram syndrome.
The Holt-Oram syndrome (OMIM 142900) is an autosomal dominant disorder with clinical features characterised by a variety of skeletal malformations and congenital heart defects. The gene for Holt-Oram syndrome has been identified as TBX5 on chromosome 12q24. TBX5 encodes a protein of 518 amino acids that belongs to the family of the T box transcriptional factors, 11 and is expressed in embryonic...
متن کاملIdentification of new mutations in the TBX5 gene in patients with Holt-Oram syndrome.
H olt-Oram syndrome (HOS) (MIM 142900), first described by Holt and Oram in 1960, is characterised by malformations of the upper limbs involving mainly the pre-axial ray and variable cardiac defects, most of them septation defects. This autosomal dominant inherited condition occurs in approximately 1 in 100 000 live births and shows high penetrative and variable intrafamilial and interfamilial ...
متن کاملNovel mutations in the TBX5 gene in patients with Holt-Oram Syndrome
The Holt-Oram syndrome (HOS) is an autosomal dominant condition characterized by upper limb and cardiac malformations. Mutations in the TBX5 gene cause HOS and have also been associated with isolated heart and arm defects. Interactions between the TBX5, GATA4 and NKX2.5 proteins have been reported in humans. We screened the TBX5, GATA4, and NKX2.5 genes for mutations, by direct sequencing, in 3...
متن کاملDifferent TBX5 interactions in heart and limb defined by Holt-Oram syndrome mutations.
To better understand the role of TBX5, a T-box containing transcription factor in forelimb and heart development, we have studied the clinical features of Holt-Oram syndrome caused by 10 different TBX5 mutations. Defects predicted to create null alleles caused substantial abnormalities both in limb and heart. In contrast, missense mutations produced distinct phenotypes: Gly80Arg caused signific...
متن کاملThe Holt-Oram syndrome.
The classical description of this syndrome of upper limb abnormalities and congenital heart lesions was by Holt and Oram in 1960.1 They were from King's College Hospital in London and reported a four generation family with nine affected subjects. Many other families were then recognised to have the same condition, which led to a series of reports in the early 1960s. The names atriodigital dyspl...
