Exome-first approach identified a novel gloss deletion associated with Lowe syndrome.


ABSTRACT: Lowe syndrome (LS) is an X-linked disorder affecting the eyes, nervous system and kidneys, typically caused by missense or nonsense/frameshift OCRL mutations. We report a 6-month-old male clinically suspected to have LS, but without the Fanconi-type renal dysfunction. Using a targeted-exome sequencing-first approach, LS was diagnosed by the identification of a deletion involving 1.7?Mb at Xq25-q26.1, encompassing the entire OCRL gene and neighboring loci.
