A Rare Contiguous Gene Deletion Leading to Trichothiodystrophy Type 4 and Glutaric Aciduria Type 3.
Introduction: Trichothiodystrophy type 4 and glutaric aciduria type 3 are rare autosomal recessive disorders caused by biallelic variants in the MPLKIP and SUGCT genes on chromosome 7p14, respectively. Trichothiodystrophy type 4 is characterized by neurologic and cutaneous abnormalities. Glutaric aciduria type 3 is a rare metabolic disorder with inconsistent phenotype and elevated urinary excretion of glutaric acid.
Case presentation: Here, we report on an infant presenting with hypotonia, failure to thrive, microcephaly, dysmorphic features, brittle hair, hypertransaminasemia, and recurrent lower respiratory tract infections. Microarray analysis revealed a homozygous microdeletion involving the MPLKIP and SUGCT genes, which are located close to each other.
Conclusion: Copy number variations should be considered in patients with coexisting clinical expression of different genetic alterations. To the best of our knowledge, our patient is the second case with co-occurrence of trichothiodystrophy type 4 and glutaric aciduria type 3, resulting from a contiguous gene deletion.
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.
