Abstract:Background
the protein phosphatase 3 catalytic subunit alpha (PPP3CA) gene encodes for the alpha isoform of the calcineurin catalytic subunit, which controls the phosphorylation status of many targets. Currently, 23 pathogenic variants of PPP3CA are known, with clinical manifestations varying by mutation type and domain.
Results
through whole exome sequencing, we found two de novo variants in PPP3CA: a frameshift variant predicted leading to a trun… Show more
