X linked fatal infantile cardiomyopathy maps to Xq28 and is possibly allelic to Barth syndrome.
A number of families with X linked dilated cardiomyopathy with onset in infancy or childhood have now been described, with varying clinical and biochemical features. Of these, one condition, Barth syndrome (BTHS), can be diagnosed clinically by the characteristic associated features of skeletal myopathy, short stature, and neutropenia, but not all of these features are always present. Molecular...
متن کاملA new X linked recessive syndrome of mental retardation and mild dysmorphism maps to Xq28.
Efforts to understand the genetic basis of mental retardation are greatly assisted by the identification of families with multiple relatives with mental retardation that clinical geneticists encounter in the routine practice of their profession. Here we describe a linkage study of a four generation family in which X linked recessive mental retardation (XLMR) is associated with minor dysmorphism...
متن کاملBarth syndrome: an X-linked cause of fetal cardiomyopathy and stillbirth
OBJECTIVE Barth Syndrome (BTHS) is an X-linked multisystem disorder (OMIM 302060) usually diagnosed in infancy and characterized by cardiac problems [dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) ± endocardial fibroelastosis (EFE) ± left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC)], proximal myopathy, feeding problems, growth retardation, neutropenia, organic aciduria and variable respiratory chain abnormalities. We wish...
متن کاملX-linked cataract and Nance-Horan syndrome are allelic disorders
Nance-Horan syndrome (NHS) is an X-linked developmental disorder characterized by congenital cataract, dental anomalies, facial dysmorphism and, in some cases, mental retardation. Protein truncation mutations in a novel gene (NHS) have been identified in patients with this syndrome. We previously mapped X-linked congenital cataract (CXN) in one family to an interval on chromosome Xp22.13 which ...
متن کاملFine mapping of X-linked clasped thumb and mental retardation (MASA syndrome) in Xq28.
The MASA syndrome is an X-linked disorder with mental retardation, spastic paraparesis, and adducted thumbs as the most characteristic features. We performed linkage analysis, using Xq28 markers, on a large MASA syndrome family. The maximum lodscore was 6.37 at 0 recombination for DXS52 and 5.99 at 0 recombination for DXS305. Crossovers were demonstrated between the disorder and DXS455. Clinica...
