Homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in STRADA cause polyhydramnios, megalencephaly and symptomatic epilepsy syndrome (PMSE), with additional features of distinctive facial traits and severe developmental delay or intellectual disability. This syndrome was first defined in 16 Old Order Mennonite patients, carrying a homozygous STRADA deletion of exon 9-13. Five additional PMSE patients have been reported since, each of them with loss-of-function variants. We report a female patient with the typical clinical features of PMSE, homozygous for a novel STRADA missense mutation c.792T>A (p.Ser264Arg) in exon 10. This finding contributes to the further delineation of the phenotype of
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
