Expanding spectrum of congenital disorder of glycosylation Ig (CDG-Ig): sibs with a unique skeletal dysplasia, hypogammaglobulinemia, cardiomyopathy, genital malformations, and early lethality.
American journal of medical genetics. Part A, 2007Co-Authors: Christian Kranz, Alice A Basinger, Müge Güçsavaş-calikoğlu, Liangwu Sun, Cynthia M Powell, Frederick W Henderson, Arthur S Aylsworth, Hudson H FreezeAbstract:In this report, we describe a brother and sister who presented at birth with short-limb skeletal dysplasia, polyhydramnios, prematurity, and generalized edema. Dysmorphic features included broad nose, thick ears, thin lips, micrognathia, inverted nipples, ulnar deviation at the wrists, spatulate fingers, fifth finger camptodactyly, Nail Hypoplasia, and talipes equinovarus. Other features included short stature, microcephaly, psychomotor retardation, B-cell lymphopenic hypogammaglobulinemia, sensorineural deafness, retinal detachment and blindness, intestinal malrotation with poor gastrointestinal motility, persistent hyponatremia, intermittent hypoglycemia, and thrombocytopenia. Cardiac anomalies included PDA, VSD, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and arrhythmias. The brother had a small penis with hypospadias, hypoplastic scrotum, and non-palpable testes. Skeletal findings included absent ossification of cervical vertebral bodies, pubic bones, knee epiphyses, and tali. Both sibs died before age 2 years, one of overwhelming sepsis and the other of cardiorespiratory failure associated with her cardiomyopathy. Metabolic studies showed a type 1 pattern of abnormal serum transferrin glycosylation. Fibroblasts synthesized truncated LLOs, primarily Man(7)GlcNAc(2), suggestive of CDG-Ig. Both sibs were compound heterozygotes for a novel 301 G > A (G101R) mutation and a previously described 437 G > A (R146Q) mutation in ALG12. Congenital disorders of glycosylation should be considered for children with undiagnosed multi-system disease including neurodevelopmental delay, skeletal dysplasia, immune deficiency, male genital Hypoplasia, and cardiomyopathy.

‘Splitting versus lumping’: Temple–Baraitser and Zimmermann–Laband Syndromes
Human Genetics, 2015Co-Authors: Nuria C. Bramswig, C. W. Ockeloen, J. C. Czeschik, A. J. Essen, R. Pfundt, J. Smeitink, B. T. Poll-the, H. Engels, T. M. Strom, D. WieczorekAbstract:KCNH1 mutations have recently been described in six individuals with Temple–Baraitser syndrome (TMBTS) and six individuals with Zimmermann–Laband syndrome (ZLS). TMBTS is characterized by intellectual disability (ID), epilepsy, dysmorphic facial features, broad thumbs and great toes with absent/hypoplastic Nails. ZLS is characterized by facial dysmorphism including coarsening of the face and a large nose, gingival enlargement, ID, Hypoplasia of terminal phalanges and Nails and hypertrichosis. In this study, we present four additional unrelated individuals with de novo KCNH1 mutations from ID cohorts. We report on a novel recurrent pathogenic KCNH1 variant in three individuals and add a fourth individual with a previously TMBTS-associated KCNH1 variant. Neither TMBTS nor ZLS was suspected clinically. KCNH1 encodes a voltage-gated potassium channel, which is not only highly expressed in the central nervous system, but also seems to play an important role during development. Clinical evaluation of our mutation-positive individuals revealed that one of the main characteristics of TMBTS/ZLS, namely the pronounced Nail Hypoplasia of the great toes and thumbs, can be mild and develop over time. Clinical comparison of all published KCNH1 mutation-positive individuals revealed a similar facial but variable limb phenotype. KCNH1 mutation-positive individuals present with severe ID, neonatal hypotonia, hypertelorism, broad nasal tip, wide mouth, Nail a/Hypoplasia, a proximal implanted and long thumb and long great toes. In summary, we show that the phenotypic variability of individuals with KCNH1 mutations is more pronounced than previously expected, and we discuss whether KCNH1 mutations allow for “lumping” or for “splitting” of TMBTS and ZLS.
