A case report of riboflavin transporter deficiency: A novel heterozygous pathogenic variant in the SLC52A3 gene
Riboflavin transporter deficiency (RTD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that presents from infancy to adulthood with a progressive axonal neuropathy characterized by a variety of neurologic symptoms including hearing loss, weakness, bulbar palsy, and respiratory insufficiency. Pathogenic variants in SLC52A2 and SLC52A3 are implicated in the pathogenesis of RTD type 2 and 3, respectively. Early identification of this disorder is critical, as it is treatable with riboflavin supplementation. We describe a 16-year-old female with a phenotype consistent with RTD3 found to have a novel heterozygous SLC52A3 variant. Though RTD is typically considered an autosomal recessive condition, her heterozygous variant was thought to be disease causing after further genetic analysis and given her improvement in response to riboflavin supplementation. This case highlights the importance of reinterpretation of genetic testing, particularly when there is a high clinical suspicion for disease.
期刊介绍:
Molecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports is an open access journal that publishes molecular and metabolic reports describing investigations that use the tools of biochemistry and molecular biology for studies of normal and diseased states. In addition to original research articles, sequence reports, brief communication reports and letters to the editor are considered.
