A large-scale mutation search reveals genetic heterogeneity in 3M syndrome

Abstract: The 3M syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder recently ascribed to mutations in the CUL7 gene and characterized by severe pre-and postnatal growth retardation. Studying a series of 33 novel cases of 3M syndrome, we have identified deleterious CUL7 mutations in 23/33 patients, including 19 novel mutations and one paternal isodisomy of chromosome 6 encompassing a CUL7 mutation.

“…Two mutations (c.3379_3380delTG, p.W1127Efs*38 and c.4451_4452delTG, p.V1484Gfs*68) have been previously described (Huber et al 2009); however, the remaining nine mutations are novel: three frameshift, three missense, two splice-site and one nonsense mutation.…”

“…Consequently, a substrate, once bound to Fbw8, is positioned optimally for accepting an ubiquitin moiety in an E2-catalyzed transfer reaction. Cormier-Daire and coworkers (14,15) have found a large panel of cul7 germ line mutations in patients with the 3-M syndrome, which is characterized by pre-and post-natal growth retardation. In addition, both the cul7 (16) and fbw8 (17) null mice exhibit intrauterine growth retardation.…”
