Abstract
We describe a female infant with X-linked chondrodysplasia punctata (CDPX1) as a result of maternal isodisomy of the X chromosome. Targeted Sanger sequencing and targeted next-generation sequencing of ARSL were used to test for the familial variant. This patient was homozygous for ARSL NM_000047.2: c.1227_1228delinsAT p.(Ser410Cys) familial variant, consistent with a diagnosis of CDPX1. Uniparental disomy is a type of chromosomal variation. Although not necessarily pathogenic, it can cause imprinting disorders and X-linked recessive disorders in females, and be a cause of autosomal recessive conditions when only one parent is a carrier. The patient described highlights that uniparental disomy can be a rare cause of X-linked recessive conditions. This mode of inheritance has not been previously described in this condition.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Dysmorphology publishes succinct case reports on the etiology, clinical delineation, genetic mapping, and molecular embryology of birth defects. This journal covers such topics as multiple congenital anomaly syndromes - with particular emphasis on previously undescribed conditions, rare findings, ethnic differences in existing syndromes, fetal abnormalities, and cytogenetic aberrations that might give clues to the localization of developmental genes. Regular features include original, peer-reviewed articles, conference reports, book and software reviews, abstracts and summaries from the UK Dysmorphology Club, and literature summaries.
Submitted articles undergo a preliminary review by the editor. Some articles may be returned to authors wihtout further consideration. Those being considered for publication will undergo further assessment and peer-review by the editors and those invited to do so from a reviewer pool.
