Abstract
MNS1 (meiosis-specific nuclear structural protein-1 gene) encodes a structural protein implicated in motile ciliary function and sperm flagella assembly. To date, two different homozygous MNS1 variants have been associated with autosomal recessive visceral heterotaxy (MIM#618948). A French individual was identified with compound heterozygous variants in the MNS1 gene. A collaborative call was proposed via GeneMatcher to describe new cases with this rare syndrome, leading to the identification of another family. The first patient was a female presenting complete situs inversus and unusual symptoms, including severe myopia and dental agenesis of 10 permanent teeth. She was found to carry compound heterozygous frameshift and nonsense variants in MNS1. The second and third patients were sibling fetuses with homozygous in-frame deletion variants in MNS1 and homozygous missense variants in GLDN. Autopsies revealed a complex prenatal malformation syndrome. We add here new cases with the ultra-rare MNS1-related disorder and provide a review of all published individuals.
期刊介绍:
The American Journal of Medical Genetics - Part A (AJMG) gives you continuous coverage of all biological and medical aspects of genetic disorders and birth defects, as well as in-depth documentation of phenotype analysis within the current context of genotype/phenotype correlations. In addition to Part A , AJMG also publishes two other parts:
Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics , covering experimental and clinical investigations of the genetic mechanisms underlying neurologic and psychiatric disorders.
Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics , guest-edited collections of thematic reviews of topical interest to the readership of AJMG .
