X-linked Malformation and Infantile Lethality Syndrome (provisionally named Ogden Syndrome)
نویسندگان
چکیده
100-150 words) This is a lethal X-linked disorder of infancy comprising a distinct combination of distinctive craniofacial features producing an aged appearance, growth failure, hypotonia, global developmental delays, cryptorchidism, and acquired cardiac arrhythmias. The first family was identified in Ogden, Utah, with five affected boys in two generations of family members. A mutation was identified as a c.109T>C (p.Ser37Pro) variant in NAA10, a gene encoding the catalytic subunit of the major human N-terminal acetyltransferase (NatA). This same mutation was identified in a second unrelated family, with three affected boys in two generations. This Xlinked Malformation and Infantile Lethality Syndrome has provisionally been named Ogden Syndrome, in honor of the hometown where the first family resides.

Background Genomic imprinting is a heritable and developmentally essential phenomenon by which gene expression occurs in an allele-specific manner1. While the imprinted alleles are primarily silenced by DNA methylation, it remains largely unknown how methylation is targeted to imprinting control region (ICR), also called differentially methylated region (DMR), and maintained. Here we show that ...

Aicardi syndrome (AS) is a relatively rare disease that was originally described in 1965 by a French neurologist named Dr. Jean Aicardi.AS consists of a classically described triad including partial or total agenesis of the corpus callosum, unilateral or bilateral chorio retinal lacunaes, and infantile spasms [1]. The causative gene mutation for Aicardi syndrome has not yet been determined alth...

BACKGROUND Aicardi Syndrome is an X-linked autosomal recessive neurodegenerative encephalopathy. The diagnostic triad is composed by infantile spasms, agenesis of corpus callosum and chorioretinal lacunae. Additional common findings are: microencephaly, spasticity and severe mental delay. It affects only females because of early embryonic lethality in males. A significant number of females with...

Rett syndrome (RS) is a neurodevelopmental infantile disease characterized by an early normal psychomotor development followed by a regression in the acquisition of normal developmental stages. In the majority of cases, it leads to a sporadic mutation in the MECP2 gene, which is located on the X chromosome. However, this syndrome has also been associated with microdeletions, gene translocations...
