Exome sequencing identifiesDYNC2H1mutations as a common cause of asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy (Jeune syndrome) without major polydactyly, renal or retinal involvement

Abstract: BackgroundJeune asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy (JATD) is a rare, often lethal, recessively inherited chondrodysplasia characterised by shortened ribs and long bones, sometimes accompanied by polydactyly, and renal, liver and retinal disease. Mutations in intraflagellar transport (IFT) genes cause JATD, including the IFT dynein-2 motor subunit gene DYNC2H1. Genetic heterogeneity and the large DYNC2H1 gene size have hindered JATD genetic diagnosis.Aims and methodsTo determine the contribution to JATD we screene… Show more

“…Length control in primary cilia has been linked to several developmental disorders, for example mutations in MKS3 (Tammachote et al, 2009) or NEK8 (Sohara et al, 2008) lead to cilium elongation and polycystic kidney disease. Severe ciliopathy phenotypes without overt morphological defects in cilia have been seen in both animal models [including deletion of IFT-B component IFT80 (Rix et al, 2011)] and patient groups [such as those with mutations in DYNC2H1 (Schmidts et al, 2013)]. …”

“…The IFT complexes transport proteins that are necessary for the assembly and maintenance of cilia (Ishikawa and Marshall, 2011), and also move signals between the cilium and cell body (Eguether et al, 2014;Liem et al, 2012;Liew et al, 2014;Wang et al, 2006). Mutations in IFT motors and complex proteins cause defects in ciliary assembly and function, resulting in several human diseases, including Jeune asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy, short-rib polydactyly syndrome, Mainzer-Saldino syndrome and Ellis-van Creveld syndrome (Aldahmesh et al, 2014;Beales et al, 2007;Caparrós-Martín et al, 2015;Dagoneau et al, 2009;Davis et al, 2011;Halbritter et al, 2013;Huber et al, 2013;McInerney-Leo et al, 2013;Merrill et al, 2009;Perrault et al, 2012Perrault et al, , 2015Schmidts et al, 2013Schmidts et al, , 2015.…”

“…IFT80, IFT140, tetratrikopeptit tekrar dizesi 21B (TTC21B-tetratricopeptide repeat domain 21B) ve dinein-2 ağır zincir-1 (DYNC2H1-dynein 2 heavy chain 1) gen mutasyonları Jeune sendromu ile en sık ilişkilendirilen mutasyonlardır. Bu genlerin heterojen ve büyük boyutlu olması bu hastalıkta genetik tanıyı zorlaştırmaktadır [9]. Jeune sendromlu olgularda hastalığın ağırlığı ve klinik bulguları değişiklik gösterebilmektedir, bu durum altta yatan genetik farklılıklara bağlanmaktadır [3].…”
