Multiple epiphyseal dysplasia (MED) is an inherited chondrodystrophy that results in deformity of articular surfaces and in subsequent degenerative joint disease. The disease is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait with high penetrance. An MED mutation has been mapped by genetic linkage analysis of DNA polymorphisms in a single large pedigree. Close linkage of MED to 130 tested chromosomal markers was ruled out by discordant inheritance patterns. However, strong evidence for linkage of MED to markers in the pericentromeric region of chromosome 19 was obtained. The most closely linked marker was D19S215, with a maximum LOD score of 6.37 at theta = .05. Multipoint linkage analysis indicated that MED is located between D19S212 and D19S215, a map interval of 1.7 cM. Discovery of the map location of MED in this family will facilitate identification of the mutant gene. The closely linked DNA polymorphisms will also provide the means to determine whether other inherited chondrodystrophies have underlying defects in the same gene. 相似文献

Accessory auricular anomaly is a small excrescence of skin that contains elastic cartilage on different regions of the helix and the face. Previous work has shown that the genetic trait of some patients with the isolated symptom of accessory auricular anomaly is autosomal dominant. To map the gene for autosomal dominant accessory auricular anomaly (ADAAA), we investigated a Chinese family with 11 affected individuals. We performed linkage analysis with microsatellite markers spanning the whole human-genome in the family. The inheritance pattern of the ADAAA family was autosomal dominant with complete penetrance. Two-point linkage analysis revealed significant maximum LOD scores of 4.20(D14S990 and D14S264, sita = 0) in the family. Haplotype construction and multipoint linkage analysis also confirmed the locus and defined the isolated ADAAA locus to a 9.84 cM interval between the markers D14S283 and D14S297. Our study assigned an isolated ADAAA locus to 14q11.2–q12. This is the first ADAAA locus reported to date.Y. Yang and J. Guo contribute to this work equally. 相似文献

Aplasia Cutis Congenita (ACC), characterized by the focal absence of the skin and skin adnexia resulting from a developmental failure, may occur as part of Adams-Oliver Syndrome (AOS) which can be defined as a congenital inherited disorder, consisting of terminal transverse limb defects and vascular anomalies in addition to ACC. Coexistence of isolated preaxial polydactyly without terminal extremity defect and ACC is extremely rare. Furthermore, ACC and preaxial polydactyly has not been reported previously. Here we report a three-generation family with autosomal dominant aplasia cutis congenita and preaxial polydactyly in the last generation and discuss whether it is a coincidence or not. 相似文献

Congenital microphthalmia is a common developmental ocular disorder characterized by shortened axial length. Isolated microphthalmia is clinically and genetically heterogeneous and may be inherited in an autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, or X-linked manner. Here, we studied a five-generation family of Sephardic Jewish origin that included 38 members, of whom 7 have either unilateral or bilateral microphthalmia of variable severity inherited as an autosomal dominant trait with incomplete penetrance. After exclusion of several candidate loci, we performed a genome-scan study and demonstrated linkage to chromosome 15q12-q15. Positive LOD scores were obtained with a maximum at the D15S1007 locus (maximum LOD score 3.77, at recombination fraction 0.00). Haplotype analyses supported the location of the disease-causing gene in a 13.8-cM interval between loci D15S1002 and D15S1040. 相似文献

Craniometaphyseal dysplasia (CMD) is a rare sclerosing skeletal disorder with progressive hyperostosis of craniofacial bones. CMD can be inherited in an autosomal dominant (AD) trait or occur after de novo mutations in the pyrophosphate transporter ANKH. Although the autosomal recessive (AR) form of CMD had been mapped to 6q21-22 the mutation has been elusive. In this study, we performed whole-exome sequencing for one subject with AR CMD and identified a novel missense mutation (c.716G>A, p.Arg239Gln) in the C-terminus of the gap junction protein alpha-1 (GJA1) coding for connexin 43 (Cx43). We confirmed this mutation in 6 individuals from 3 additional families. The homozygous mutation cosegregated only with affected family members. Connexin 43 is a major component of gap junctions in osteoblasts, osteocytes, osteoclasts and chondrocytes. Gap junctions are responsible for the diffusion of low molecular weight molecules between cells. Mutations in Cx43 cause several dominant and recessive disorders involving developmental abnormalities of bone such as dominant and recessive oculodentodigital dysplasia (ODDD; MIM #164200, 257850) and isolated syndactyly type III (MIM #186100), the characteristic digital anomaly in ODDD. However, characteristic ocular and dental features of ODDD as well as syndactyly are absent in patients with the recessive Arg239Gln Cx43 mutation. Bone remodeling mechanisms disrupted by this novel Cx43 mutation remain to be elucidated. 相似文献

Recessive sex-determining genes in human XX male syndrome 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Maleness is normally inherited as a dominant trait (a single copy of the Y chromosome induces testicular differentiation of the embryonic gonad), but our genealogic study of three XX males in one pedigree indicated an autosomal recessive mode of male inheritance. Subsequent study revealed the presence of H-Y antigens in the three XX males and in their mothers, and suggested that excess H-Y may be found in the fathers. Inasmuch as H-Y loci have been mapped to the human Y chromosome, these data favor the view that H-Y structural loci comprise a family of testis-determining genes, and that Y autosome (or Y-X) translocation can generate either dominant or recessive modes of XX sex reversal, depending upon the particular portion of H-Y genes transferred. 相似文献

Duane's syndrome is a congenital abnormality of eye movement, which may be inherited as an autosomal dominant trait but usually occurs sporadically. Genetic mapping in a Mexican family has recently identified a locus for Duane's syndrome within a 17.8-cM region of chromosome 2q31. The region was flanked by the microsatellite markers D2S2330 and D2S364. We performed linkage and haplotype analysis in a four-generation UK family with autosomal dominant transmission of Duane's syndrome. Linkage to 2q31 was confirmed with a maximum logarithm of differences (lod) score of 3.3 at theta = 0. The genetic interval was reduced to an 8.8-cM region between markers D2S326 and D2S364 that includes the candidate homeobox D gene cluster. 相似文献

A syndrome of multiple defects including cleft palate, polydactyly, and often syndactyly, shortened tibia-fibula, brachygnathism and scoliosis lethal to males is described in a family of Australian shepherd dogs. Female pups lack the cleft palate and survive, but may exhibit the other defects to a lesser degree than do males. Litter data suggest that the trait is inherited as an X-linked lethal gene, but the possibility of a sex-influenced autosomal allele cannot be ruled out. The syndrome may have arisen in conjunction with instability of the merle locus. 相似文献

Delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALA-D) is the second enzyme in the porphyrin-heme pathway and converts delta-aminolevulinc acid (ALA) to porphobilinogen (PBG). A family is reported with an inherited deficiency of red cell ALA-D activity occurring over three generations in an autosomal dominant pattern. Intial experiments support the hypothesis that the mutation in this family may affect a regulatory gene, but enzyme purification and further study are required. Although no clinical manifestations of deficient ALA-D activity have been found in affected persons, families such as this may be at increased risk for the serious consequences of lead poisoning, which produces marked inhibition of ALA-D activity. 相似文献

Gingival fibromatosis is characterized by a slowly progressive benign enlargement of the oral gingival tissues. The condition results in the teeth being partially or totally engulfed by keratinized gingiva, causing aesthetic and functional problems. Both genetic and pharmacologically induced forms of gingival fibromatosis are known. The most common genetic form, hereditary gingival fibromatosis (HGF), is usually transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait, although sporadic cases are common and autosomal recessive inheritance has been reported. The genetic basis of gingival fibromatosis is unknown. We identified an extended family (n=32) segregating an autosomal dominant form of isolated gingival fibromatosis. Using a genomewide search strategy, we identified genetic linkage (Zmax=5.05, straight theta=.00) for the HGF phenotype to polymorphic markers in the genetic region of chromosome 2p21 bounded by the loci D2S1788 and D2S441. This is the first report of linkage for isolated HGF, and the findings have implications for identification of the underlying genetic basis of gingival fibromatosis. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Severe anomalies of the forebrain together with radial limb anomalies have been reported in Steinfeld syndrome, XK aprosencephaly, and partial monosomy 13q. Steinfeld syndrome is an extremely variable autosomal dominant condition that, in severe cases, is characterized by holoprosencephaly, radial limb defects, and renal and/or cardiac defects. In mild cases there may be only thumb hypoplasia, ocular coloboma, or oral clefts. XK aprosencephaly, also called Garcia-Lurie syndrome (GLS), is a usually sporadic disorder with radial limb defects and aprosencephaly/atelencephaly. Based on two atypical sibships, autosomal recessive inheritance has been suggested. Two patients with variations of monosomy 13q have been described with atelencephaly but, generally, Steinfeld and XK aprosencephaly patients are chromosomally normal. Holoprosencephaly in 13q deletion patients appears to be due to ZIC2 mutations, but ZIC2 has not been previously tested in Steinfeld syndrome or GLS patients. CASES: We report three sporadic cases with clinical features intermediate between Steinfeld and GLS, including severe forebrain malformations and radial limb defects. All had normal karyotypes, and mutations in ZIC2 were absent in the two cases tested. CONCLUSIONS: In our cases and in the literature there is significant clinical overlap between Steinfeld syndrome and GLS. We propose these conditions may not be nosologically or etiologically distinct. The spectrum of severe forebrain anomalies in these conditions is broader than previously thought and may include some neural tube defects. Mild cases are difficult to identify and the full range of expression remains unknown. Autosomal dominant inheritance with incomplete penetrance and frequent new mutations is postulated. Thorough clinical evaluation is recommended for children with severe forebrain and radial limb defects. 相似文献

Otosclerosis is a common disorder of the otic capsule resulting in hearing impairment in 0.3–0.4% of the Caucasian population.
The aetiology of the disease remains unclear. In most cases, otosclerosis can be considered as a complex disease. In some
cases, the disease is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait, sometimes with reduced penetrance. To date, seven autosomal
dominant loci have been reported, but none of the disease-causing genes has been identified. In this study, we present the
results of a genome-wide linkage analysis in a large Tunisian family segregating autosomal dominant otosclerosis. Linkage
analysis localised the responsible gene to chromosome 9p13.1-9q21.11 with a maximal LOD score of 4.13, and this locus was
named OTSC8. Using newly generated short tandem repeat polymorphism markers, we mapped this new otosclerosis locus to a 34.16 Mb interval
between the markers D9S970 and D9S1799. This region comprises the pericentromeric region on both arms of chromosome 9, a highly
complex region containing many duplicated sequences.

Idiopathic scoliosis (IS) is a spine deformity of unknown etiology. Family studies have suggested that IS may be inherited as a mendelian autosomal dominant trait. We have performed linkage analysis on a three-generation IS Italian family. A positive LOD score value of 3.20 at theta=0.00 was detected with marker D17S799 after a genome-wide scanning. Analysis of six flanking microsatellites confirmed the linkage and haplotype inspection defined an interval of about 20 cM between D17S947 and D17S798. This is the first locus reported for IS. We scored genes mapping in this interval and studied the heparan sulfotransferase genes as candidates on the basis of their biochemical role. No causative mutation was detected in the affected patients. 相似文献

Members of two different families were found to have the dysplastic naevus syndrome and coexistent endocrine abnormalities. The dysplastic naevus syndrome is probably inherited as an autosomal dominant trait and has been associated with other primary malignancies. This is the first time that it has been described in association with endocrine abnormalities. 相似文献

Stargardt disease (STGD) is the most common hereditary macular dystrophy and is characterized by decreased central vision, atrophy of the macula and underlying retinal-pigment epithelium, and frequent presence of prominent flecks in the posterior pole of the retina. STGD is most commonly inherited as an autosomal recessive trait, but many families have been described in which features of the disease are transmitted in an autosomal dominant manner. A recessive locus has been identified on chromosome 1p (STGD1), and dominant loci have been mapped to both chromosome 13q (STGD2) and chromosome 6q (STGD3). In this study, we describe a kindred with an autosomal dominant Stargardt-like phenotype. A genomewide search demonstrated linkage to a locus on chromosome 4p, with a maximum LOD score of 5.12 at a recombination fraction of.00, for marker D4S403. Analysis of extended haplotypes localized the disease gene to an approximately 12-cM interval between loci D4S1582 and D4S2397. Therefore, this kindred establishes a new dominant Stargardt-like locus, STGD4. 相似文献

Report of two cases with Van der Woude syndrome: a child and her mother: Congenital pits of the lower lip are rare malformations. They are closely associated with cleft lip (CL), cleft lip/palate (CL/CP) or isolated cleft palate (CP) and if so this condition is known as Van der Woude syndrome, which is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion with high penetrance. Two individuals, one with lower lip pits and cleft palate and the other with isolated lower lip pit from the same family are described. Autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance was observed in this family and treatment consisted of complete removal of sinus tracts in one patient. Pathological features of sinus tracts consisted of stratified nonkeratinized squamous epithelium and a lamina propria of dense connective tissue. Importance of genetic counseling is emphasized as at least half of gene carriers have some kind of clefting. 相似文献
