150330.0030; WERNER SYNDROME, ATYPICAL |
Identified Mutation |
ALA57PRO; In an Iranian female with short stature and a diagnosis of progeroid syndrome or atypical Werner syndrome (277700), Chen et al. (2003) found an ala57-to-pro substitution (A57P) resulting from a 584G-C transversion in the LMNA gene. Hypogonadism, osteoporosis, osteosclerosis of digits, and dilated cardiomyopathy were described. The mutation was heterozygous and presumably de novo. |
Remarks |
Atypical; clinically affected; Iranian; atypical; short stature; height = 138 cm; low birth weight; pinched, bird-like features; sparse hair; tight, atrophic skin with hypermelanosis; hyperkeratosis and wrinkling on soles of feet; ulceration at the right ankle joint; nail deformity; telangiectasia; underdeveloped secondary sexual characteristics; pes planus; scleroderma-like local soft tissue calcification; muscle wasting ; osteosrthritis in knees and hip joints; right side prominent cardiomyopathy; x-ray finding of Perthe's disease; positive 24 hr urinary hyaluronic acid test. This donor is heterozygous for a G-to-C substitution at nucleotide 584 (584G>C) of the LMNA gene, resulting in a missense mutation in codon 57 [ALA57PRO(A57P)]. |
