Gene |
ATR |
Chromosomal Location |
3q22-q24 |
Allelic Variant 1 |
601215.0001; SECKEL SYNDROME |
Identified Mutation |
2101A>G; In 2 Pakistani families, O'Driscoll et al. (Nature Genet. 33: 497-501, 2003) found that a homozygous translationally silent (synonymous) single base change, 2101A-G, segregated with Seckel syndrome (210600). The mutation resulted in the use of 2 cryptic splice-donor sites in exon 9. Loss of exon 9 and use of the cryptic splice-donor sites introduced a stop codon in the next exon. Because of the profound effect on splicing efficiency, there were reduced but residual levels of normal transcript and protein. The severity of this hypomorphic mutation was shown by the marked microcephaly and dwarfism observed in the affected individuals and was consistent with the embryonic and somatic lethality seen in the absence of ATR (Brown and Baltimore, Genes Dev. 14: 397-402, 2000; Cortez et al., Science 294: 1713-1716, 2001). This was the first evidence of a clinical disorder associated with impaired ATR signaling. |

Remarks |
Clinically affected; striking microcephaly; 106 cm (-4.8 SD) tall with a head circumference of 37 cm (-12 SD) at age 9; receding forehead; micrognathia; prominent nose; crowded teeth; dental malocclusion; mild thoracic kyphosis; moderate mental retardation; first walked at age 7 years; a mutation at nucleotide 2101A>G causes increased levels of skipping exon 9 and activation of two cryptic splicing events from sites in exon 9 leading to termination in exon 10; splicing of exon 9 is inefficient in mutant cells, but a small amount of correctly spliced mRNA was observed; fibroblast cell line derived from the proband showed an impaired response to DNA damage induced by UV radiation but had a normal in response to ionizing radiation; cells showed a low level of expression of the ATR protein; cells are hypersensitive to mitomycin C and UV in a survival assay (see more information in PMID: 12640452); subject referred to as V6 in publication by Goodship, et al (PMID: 10889046) and as F02-98 in several other publications. |
