A Novel Missense Mutation in CLCN1 Gene in a Family with Autosomal Recessive Congenital Myotonia
Congenital recessive myotonia is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in CLCN1, which codes for the main skeletal muscle chloride channel ClC-1. More than 120 mutations have been found in this gene. The main feature of this disorder is muscle membrane hyperexcitability. Here, we report a 59-year male patient suffering from congenital myotonia. He had transient generalized myotonia, which...
متن کاملIdentification of a Novel Splice Site Mutation in RUNX2 Gene in a Family with Rare Autosomal Dominant Cleidocranial Dysplasia
Introduction: Pathogenic variants of RUNX2, a gene that encodes an osteoblast-specific transcription factor, have been shown as the cause of CCD, which is a rare hereditary skeletal and dental disorder with dominant mode of inheritance and a broad range of clinical variability. Due to the relative lack of clinical complications resulting in CCD, the medical diagnosis of this disorder is challen...
متن کاملIdentification of a Novel CLCNKB Mutation in an Iranian Family with Bartter Syndrome Type 3.
Bartter syndrome (BS) is a group of uncommon genetic disorders of reabsorption of salt in the cortical thick ascending limb (TAL) of the Henle's loop, typically distinguished by metabolic alkalosis, salt loss, hypokalemia, hyperreninemic hyperaldosteronism and normal blood pressure. Bartter syndrome type 3, recognized as a classic BS (CBS), occurs because of mutations in CLCNKB gene. We enroll...
متن کاملSyndromic Intellectual Disability Caused by a Novel Truncating Variant in AHDC1: A Case Report
Mutations in the AHDC1 gene are associated with the Xia-Gibbs syndrome (XGS), a sporadic genetic disorder characterised by developmental delay, intellectual disability, hypotonia, obstructive sleep apnoea, dysmorphic facial features, and cerebral malformations with plagiocephaly. Here we report the case of a 13-year-old Colombian female patient with a history of developmental delay, speech dela...
