Abstract
Introduction: Grange syndrome (OMIM 602531) is characterized by a constellation of symptoms of hypertension, stenosis, or occlusion of different arteries (including the cerebral, renal, abdominal, and coronary vessels) with a variable occurrence of brachysyndactyly, bone fragility, and congenital heart defects. Learning disabilities were also reported in some cases. Biallelic pathogenic variants in YY1AP1 are associated with the syndrome. Only 14 individuals with this ultra-rare syndrome (12 of them were molecularly confirmed) have hitherto been reported in the literature.
Case presentation: We herein describe a 11/2-year-old additional female case of Grange syndrome with hypertension, patent ductus arteriosus, and brachysyndactyly who was subsequently confirmed to carry a novel homozygous frameshift variant (c.2291del; p.Pro764Leufs*12) in the YY1AP1 gene through whole-exome sequencing.
Conclusion: This report extends the allelic spectrum in Grange syndrome and helps provide insight into the potential role of YY1AP1 in the regulation of cellular processes.
期刊介绍:
''Molecular Syndromology'' publishes high-quality research articles, short reports and reviews on common and rare genetic syndromes, aiming to increase clinical understanding through molecular insights. Topics of particular interest are the molecular basis of genetic syndromes, genotype-phenotype correlation, natural history, strategies in disease management and novel therapeutic approaches based on molecular findings. Research on model systems is also welcome, especially when it is obviously relevant to human genetics. With high-quality reviews on current topics the journal aims to facilitate translation of research findings to a clinical setting while also stimulating further research on clinically relevant questions. The journal targets not only medical geneticists and basic biomedical researchers, but also clinicians dealing with genetic syndromes. With four Associate Editors from three continents and a broad international Editorial Board the journal welcomes submissions covering the latest research from around the world.
