De novo a novel variant of CaSR gene in a neonate with congenital hypoparathyroidism.

ABSTRACT: Autosomal-dominant hypocalcemia with hypercalciuria (ADHH) is a genetic disease characterized by hypoparathyroidism with hypercalciuria. Most patients with ADHH have calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) gene mutations. The CaSR gene controls parathyroid secretions, and mutations in this gene can be detected via changes in serum calcium level. The activating mutation of the CaSR gene results in familial or sporadic ADHH. Most activating mutations of the CaSR gene are reportedly de novo missense mutations. This is the first case report of a novel activating variant of the CaSR gene in a neonate with congenital hypoparathyroidism with hypomagnesemia and hypercalciuria. We also report the 3-month follow-up management of the patient.

A novel de novo SLC26A3 mutation causing congenital chloride diarrhea in a Japanese neonate.

Project description:BackgroundCongenital chloride diarrhea (CCD) is characterized by persistent chloride (Cl)-rich diarrhea evident from birth. CCD is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by defects in the solute carrier family 26 member 3 (SLC26A3) gene, which encodes an intestinal Cl- /HCO3- , Na+ -independent exchanger. Various mutations of SLC26A3 have been described in CCD. However, no de novo mutations have been found to be responsible for CCD. Here we report the first such occurrence.MethodsClinical and laboratory findings during the perinatal period were obtained retrospectively from medical records. Mutations involving SLC26A3 were detected by Sanger sequencing.ResultsThe male infant reported here was delivered at 29 weeks of gestation. Just after birth, he had watery diarrhea without meconium passage. High chloride concentrations in the diarrhea led to a diagnosis of CCD. Direct sequencing of all coding exons in SLC26A3 including exon-intron boundaries disclosed 2 compound heterozygous mutations: c.382G>A, p.G128S and c.2063-1g>t. The c. 2063-1g>t mutation was confirmed in his mother's DNA, but c.382G>A, p.G128S was absent in both mother and father.ConclusionWe concluded that c.382G>A, p.G128S represented a de novo mutation of SLC26A3, a very rare event in autosomal recessive disorders. To our knowledge, this is the first CCD case involving a de novo novel mutation of SLC26A3.

Novel de novo AVPR2 Variant in a Patient with Congenital Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus.

Project description:Early diagnosis and treatment of congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (CNDI) are essential due to the risk of intellectual disability caused by repeated episodes of dehydration and rapid rehydration. Timely genetic testing for disease-causing variants in the arginine vasopressin receptor 2 (AVPR2) gene is possible in at-risk newborns with a known family history of X-linked CNDI. In this study, a Swedish male with no family history was diagnosed with CNDI at 6 months of age during an episode of gastroenteritis. We analyzed the coding regions of AVPR2 by PCR and direct DNA sequencing and identified an 80-bp duplication in exon 2 (GenBank NM_000054.4; c.800_879dup) in the proband. This variant leads to a frameshift and introduces a stop codon four codons downstream (p.Ala294Profs*4). The variant gene product either succumbs to nonsense-mediated decay or is translated to a truncated nonfunctional vasopressin V2 receptor. This variant was absent in four unaffected family members, including his parents, as well as in 100 alleles from healthy controls, and is thus considered a novel de novo disease-causing variant. Identification of the disease-causing variant facilitated precise diagnosis of CNDI in the proband. Furthermore, it allows future genetic counseling in the family. This case study highlights the importance of genetic testing in sporadic infant cases with CNDI that can occur due to de novo variants in AVPR2 or several generations of female transmission of the disease-causing variant.

Rapid genome sequencing identifies a novel de novo SNAP25 variant for neonatal congenital myasthenic syndrome.

Project description:Congenital myasthenic syndrome (CMS) is a group of 32 disorders involving genetic dysfunction at the neuromuscular junction resulting in skeletal muscle weakness that worsens with physical activity. Precise diagnosis and molecular subtype identification are critical for treatment as medication for one subtype may exacerbate disease in another (Engel et al., Lancet Neurol 14: 420 [2015]; Finsterer, Orphanet J Rare Dis 14: 57 [2019]; Prior and Ghosh, J Child Neurol 36: 610 [2021]). The SNAP25-related CMS subtype (congenital myasthenic syndrome 18, CMS18; MIM #616330) is a rare disorder characterized by muscle fatigability, delayed psychomotor development, and ataxia. Herein, we performed rapid whole-genome sequencing (rWGS) on a critically ill newborn leading to the discovery of an unreported pathogenic de novo SNAP25 c.529C > T; p.Gln177Ter variant. In this report, we present a novel case of CMS18 with complex neonatal consequence. This discovery offers unique insight into the extent of phenotypic severity in CMS18, expands the reported SNAP25 variant phenotype, and paves a foundation for personalized management for CMS18.

Congenital cataracts: de novo gene conversion event in CRYBB2.

Project description:PurposeTo identify the cause of congenital cataracts in a consanguineous family of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry.MethodsWe performed genome-wide linkage analysis and whole-exome sequencing for the initial discovery of variants, and we confirmed the variants using gene-specific primers and Sanger sequencing.ResultsWe found significant evidence of linkage to chromosome 22, under an autosomal dominant inheritance model, with a maximum logarithm of the odds (LOD) score of 3.91 (16.918 to 25.641 Mb). Exome sequencing identified three nonsynonymous changes in the CRYBB2 exon 5 coding sequence that are consistent with the sequence of the corresponding region of the pseudogene CRYBB2P1. The identification of these changes was complicated by possible mismapping of some mutated CRYBB2 sequences to CRYBB2P1. Sequencing with gene-specific primers confirmed that the changes--rs2330991, c.433 C>T (p.R145W); rs2330992, c.440A>G (p.Q147R); and rs4049504, c.449C>T (p.T150M)--present in all ten affected family members are located in CRYBB2 and are not artifacts of cross-reaction with CRYBB2P1. We did not find these changes in six unaffected family members, including the unaffected grandfather who contributed the affected haplotype, nor did we find them in the 100 Ashkenazi Jewish controls.ConclusionsOur data are consistent with a de novo gene conversion event, transferring 270 base pairs at most from CRYBB2P1 to exon 5 of CRYBB2. This study highlights how linkage mapping can be complicated by de novo mutation events, as well as how sequence-analysis pipeline mapping of short reads from next-generation sequencing can be complicated by the existence of pseudogenes or other highly homologous sequences.

A de novo variant in the bovine ADAMTSL4 gene in an Original Braunvieh calf with congenital cataract.

Project description:Inherited forms of cataract are a heterogeneous group of eye disorders known in livestock species. Clinicopathological analysis of a single case of impaired vision in a newborn Original Braunvieh calf revealed nuclear cataract. Whole-genome sequencing of the parent-offspring trio revealed a de novo mutation of ADAMTSL4 in this case. The heterozygous p.Arg776His missense variant affects a conserved residue of the ADAMTSL4 gene that encodes a secreted glycoprotein expressed in the lens throughout embryonic development. In humans, ADAMTSL4 genetic variants cause recessively inherited forms of subluxation of the lens. Given that ADAMTSL4 is a functional candidate gene for inherited disorders of the lens, we suggest that heterozygosity for the identified missense variant may have caused the congenital cataract in the affected calf. Cattle populations should be monitored for unexplained cataract cases, with subsequent DNA sequencing a hypothesized pathogenic effect of heterozygous ADAMTSL4 variants could be confirmed.

A Neonatal Case of Autosomal Dominant Hypoparathyroidism without Mutation of the CASR Gene.

Project description:We experienced a case of familial hypoparathyroidism with an autosomal dominant pattern of transmission and performed molecular analysis of the calcium-sensing receptor (CASR) gene. The patient was a female neonate, born by cesarean section at term because of breech presentation. Her mother had been diagnosed with idiopathic hypoparathyroidism at the age of 9 yr and had been receiving vitamin D treatment since then. At birth, the patient's serum calcium concentration was 8.4 mg/dl, but it fell to 4.0 mg/dl on the fifth day after birth. Furthermore, her serum intact PTH level was inappropriately low, while hyperphosphatemia and hypomagnesemia were found. She was diagnosed with familial hypoparathyroidism, and was immediately started on oral administration of 1?(OH)D3 (0.1 µg/kg/day) and continuous intravenous infusion of 8.5% calcium gluconate. Additionally, trichlormethiazide was administered because of elevated urinary calcium/creatinine (Ca/Cr) ratio. Her serum calcium concentration gradually improved thereafter. In this case, autosomal dominant hypocalcemia (ADH) due to abnormality in the CASR gene was clinically suspected, but DNA sequencing analysis revealed no mutation of the CASR gene in either the patient or her mother. This result suggests that the patient's hypoparathyroidism may have been caused by abnormality in a gene other than CASR.

A novel mutation in the GCM2 gene causing severe congenital isolated hypoparathyroidism.

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate the GCM2 gene in three siblings with congenital hypoparathyroidism and perform functional analysis.Materials and methodsWe sequenced the GCM2 gene by PCR and analyzed the functional consequence of the mutation by transient transfection studies. Haplotype analysis was performed.ResultsWe identified a nucleotide change, c.408C>A, in exon 3 that is predicted to truncate the Gcm2 protein (p.Tyr136Ter). All three affected siblings were homozygous and both parents were heterozygous for the mutation. Transfection studies revealed the mutant mRNA but not expression of the Gcm2 protein. Haplotype analysis revealed that the two mutant GCM2 alleles shared genotypes on chromosome 6p24.2.ConclusionsWe describe the first GCM2 mutation in exon 3 in patients with severe congenital hypoparathyroidism. Informative genetic markers could not exclude identity by descent for the mutant alleles. Gcm2 protein was not detected after transfection, suggesting that complete lack of Gcm2 action accounts for severe hypoparathyroidism.

Congenital Corneal Endothelial Dystrophies Resulting From Novel De Novo Mutations.

Project description:To describe 2 cases of congenital corneal endothelial edema resulting from novel de novo mutations.Case A patient was a 15-month-old white child and case B patient was a 3-year-old Hispanic child presenting with bilateral cloudy corneas since birth. Clinicopathologic findings are presented. DNA samples were screened for mutations in candidate genes by Sanger sequencing.Slit-lamp examination of case A patient revealed stromal edema and haze. Histology of the keratoplasty button showed stromal thickening with loss of endothelium and thin Descemet membrane. Sanger sequencing established the diagnosis of congenital hereditary endothelial dystrophy by detection of a compound heterozygous mutation in SLC4A11. The proband displayed a novel de novo frameshift mutation in one SLC4A11 allele, p.(Pro817Argfs*32), in conjunction with a maternally inherited missense mutation in SLC4A11, p.(Arg869His). Case B patient similarly presented with stromal edema and stromal haze. Histopathologic analysis revealed a spongy epithelium, focal discontinuities in Bowman layer, stromal thickening with areas of compacted posterior stroma, variable thickness of Descemet membrane, and regional multilayered endothelium. Sanger sequencing found a novel de novo nonsense mutation in the first exon of ZEB1, p.(Cys7*).To the authors' knowledge, we report the earliest clinical presentation of posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy resulting from a de novo mutation in ZEB1. Additionally, we present a congenital hereditary endothelial dystrophy case with a thin Descemet membrane with a novel compound heterozygous SLC4A11 mutation. In the absence of a family history or consanguinity, de novo mutations may result in congenital corneal endothelial dystrophies.

Functional characterization of a novel PBX1 de novo missense variant identified in a patient with syndromic congenital heart disease.

Project description:Pre-B cell leukemia factor 1 (PBX1) is an essential developmental transcription factor, mutations in which have recently been associated with CAKUTHED syndrome, characterized by multiple congenital defects including congenital heart disease (CHD). During analysis of a whole-exome-sequenced cohort of heterogeneous CHD patients, we identified a de novo missense variant, PBX1:c.551G>C p.R184P, in a patient with tetralogy of Fallot with absent pulmonary valve and extra-cardiac phenotypes. Functional analysis of this variant by creating a CRISPR-Cas9 gene-edited mouse model revealed multiple congenital anomalies. Congenital heart defects (persistent truncus arteriosus and ventricular septal defect), hypoplastic lungs, hypoplastic/ectopic kidneys, aplastic adrenal glands and spleen, as well as atretic trachea and palate defects were observed in the homozygous mutant embryos at multiple stages of development. We also observed developmental anomalies in a proportion of heterozygous embryos, suggestive of a dominant mode of inheritance. Analysis of gene expression and protein levels revealed that although Pbx1 transcripts are higher in homozygotes, amounts of PBX1 protein are significantly decreased. Here, we have presented the first functional model of a missense PBX1 variant and provided strong evidence that p.R184P is disease-causal. Our findings also expand the phenotypic spectrum associated with pathogenic PBX1 variants in both humans and mice.

Case Report: A de novo Variant of CRYGC Gene Associated With Congenital Cataract and Microphthalmia.

Project description:Background: Congenital cataract is one of the most common causes of blindness in children. A rapid and accurate genetic diagnosis benefit the patients in the pediatric department. The current study aims to identify the genetic defects in a congenital cataract patient without a family history. Case presentation: A congenital cataract patient with microphthalmia and nystagmus was recruited for this study. Trio-based whole-exome sequencing revealed a de novo variant (c.394delG, p.V132Sfs*15) in CRYGC gene. According to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) criteria, the variant could be annontated as pathogenic. Conclusion: Our findings provide new knowledge of the variant spectrum of CRYGC gene and are essential for understanding the heterogeneity of cataracts in the Chinese population.
