Variable phenotypic expression of a MECP2 mutation in a family / K. AUGENSTEIN in Journal of Neurodevelopmental Disorders, 1-4 (December 2009)
[article]
Titre : Variable phenotypic expression of a MECP2 mutation in a family Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : K. AUGENSTEIN, Auteur ; J. B. LANE, Auteur ; A. HORTON, Auteur ; C. SCHANEN, Auteur ; A. K. PERCY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.313 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Dystonia Mecp2 Male Mutation Phenotype-genotype Rett syndrome X chromosome inactivation Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : We report a three generation family in which five members, three females and two males, demonstrate a 44 bp deletion (1164-1207del44) in the MECP2 gene associated with Rett syndrome, leading to a truncation of the C-terminus of the protein. Two of the three females and both males do not meet RTT criteria whereas the youngest female has classic RTT. Both males demonstrated a clear pattern of progressive involvement including dystonia. The transmitting females do not demonstrate features of RTT as a result of unbalanced X chromosome inactivation (XCI) and were only identified as carriers following the evaluation of the affected males and the girl with classic RTT. As such, accurate assessment of the precise frequency of MECP2 mutations in carrier females with mild cognitive impairment or borderline cognitive function will be under-represented unless an affected offspring is recognized. Strategies for accurate diagnosis in such instances should be considered carefully.
