A Novel c.3636-4 A>G Mutation in the CCDC88C Plays a Causative Role in Familial Spinocerebellar Ataxia.
Introduction: Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) is an autosomal dominant genetic disease characterized by cerebellar neurological deficits. Specifically, its primary clinical manifestation is ataxia accompanied by peripheral nerve damage. A total of 48 causative genes of SCA have been identified. This study aimed to identify causative genes of autosomal dominant SCA in a four-generation Chinese kindred comprising eight affected individuals.
Methods: Genomic DNA samples were extracted from the pedigree members, and genomic whole-exome sequencing was performed, followed by bidirectional Sanger sequencing, and minigene assays to identify mutation sites.
Results: A novel pathogenic heterozygous mutation in the splice region of the coiled-coil domain containing the 88C (CCDC88C) gene (NM_001080414:c.3636-4 A>G) was identified in four affected members. The minigene assay results indicated that this mutation leads to the insertion of CAG bases (c.3636-1_3636-3 insCAG).
Conclusion: CCDC88C gene mutation leads to SCA40 (OMIM:616053), which is a rare subtype of SCA without symptoms during childhood. Our findings further demonstrated the role of the CCDC88C gene in SCA and indicated that the c.3636-4 A>G (NM_001080414) variant of CCDC88C is causative for a later-onset phenotype of SCA40. Our findings enrich the mutation spectrum of CCDC88C gene and provide a theoretical basis for the genetic counseling of SCA40.
期刊介绍:
Gathering original research reports and short communications from all over the world, ''Human Heredity'' is devoted to methodological and applied research on the genetics of human populations, association and linkage analysis, genetic mechanisms of disease, and new methods for statistical genetics, for example, analysis of rare variants and results from next generation sequencing. The value of this information to many branches of medicine is shown by the number of citations the journal receives in fields ranging from immunology and hematology to epidemiology and public health planning, and the fact that at least 50% of all ''Human Heredity'' papers are still cited more than 8 years after publication (according to ISI Journal Citation Reports). Special issues on methodological topics (such as ‘Consanguinity and Genomics’ in 2014; ‘Analyzing Rare Variants in Complex Diseases’ in 2012) or reviews of advances in particular fields (‘Genetic Diversity in European Populations: Evolutionary Evidence and Medical Implications’ in 2014; ‘Genes and the Environment in Obesity’ in 2013) are published every year. Renowned experts in the field are invited to contribute to these special issues.
