Allelic Variant 1 |
607461.0001; DYGGVE-MELCHIOR-CLAUSEN DISEASE |
Identified Mutation |
TYR16TER; In a consanguineous family originating in the Dominican Republic, Cohn et al. (Am. J. Hum. Genet. 72: 419-428, 2003) found that an individual affected with DMC (223800) was homozygous for a 48C-G point mutation in exon 2 of the FLJ90130 gene, predicting a tyr16-to-stop (Y16X) change. Both parents were carriers of the mutation, and an unaffected child was homozygous for the normal sequence, compatible with the chromosome 18 haplotypes inherited from her parents (Ehtesham et al., Am. J. Hum. Genet. 71: 947-951, 2002). The very early truncation of the protein implied by the mutation strongly suggested that it is a null mutation. Thus, DMC appears to be the phenotype resulting from absence of the FLJ90130 gene product. |

Remarks |
Clinically affected; short trunk; rhizomelic shortening; increasing lordosis; platyspondyly; developmental delay; mental retardation; parents are consanguineous; donor subject is homozygous for a C>G point mutation at nucleotide 48 in exon 2 of the DYM (FLJ90130) gene (48C>G), resulting in a truncation and premature stop at codon 16 [TYR16TER (Y16X)] |
