Localization of the Gene for Congenital Dyserythropoietic Anemia Type I to a <1-cM Interval on Chromosome 15q15.1-15.3

Abstract: Congenital dyserythropoietic anemias (CDA) are a rare group of red-blood-cell disorders of unknown etiology that are characterized by ineffective erythropoiesis, pathognomonic cytopathology of the nucleated red blood cells in the bone marrow, and secondary hemochromatosis. In CDA type I, bone-marrow electron microscopy reveals characteristic findings in erythroid precursors, including spongy heterochromatin and enlarged nuclear pores. Since the genetic basis of CDA type I is not evident, we used homozygosity a… Show more

“…As a result of the perfect cosegregation of these additional features with their CDAI status, these patients were meticulously examined for the possible involvement of chromosome 15 in their condition. 15 Detailed molecular analysis of this family's DNA samples revealed a B70 kb deletion in chromosome 15q15, removing part of the CATSPER2 gene, and suggesting the importance of this gene for sperm motility in humans.…”

“…In the course of positional cloning of the Congenital Dyserythropoietic Anemia type I (CDAI) gene [MIM 224120], 14 which was previously localized to chromosome 15q15.1 -15.3, 15 we examined a family of French origin, in which the clinical and hematological features of the propositus (II-2, Figure 1a) and of his two affected brothers were compatible with CDAI (Table 1). However, unlike other CDAI patients, the brothers suffered also from sensorineural deafness, and a severe reduction in the percentage of motile spermatozoa in their ejaculates ( Table 1).…”

“…[7][8][9] A cohort of 45 Israeli Bedouin patients with CDA I enabled us to map the disease gene to chromosome 15, between markers D15S779 and D15S778, and subsequently to clone the CDAN1 gene. 10,11 The CDAN1 gene, with its 28 exons, spans 15 kb of genomic DNA and encodes a 4738-nucleotide-long mRNA. Northern blot analysis revealed that the gene is ubiquitously expressed.…”
