Sources: Expert List Mode of inheritance for gene: NMNAT1 was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal Publications for gene: NMNAT1 were set to 32533184, 33668384 Phenotypes for gene: NMNAT1 were set to Spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, sensorineural hearing loss, intellectual disability, and Leber congenital amaurosis (SHILCA), MIM#619260 Review for gene: NMNAT1 was set to AMBER Added comment: 3 families reported, but 2 are distantly related (shared haplotype). Clinical presentation was severe spondylo-epiphyseal dysplasia, sensorineural hearing loss, intellectual disability and Leber congenital amaurosis (SHILCA). The affected children in the 2 related families were homozygous for 7.4-kb duplication involving the last 2 exons of the NMNAT1 gene, spanning the beginning of intron 3 to the middle of the 3-prime UTR (chr1:10,036,359-10,043,727, GRCh37). The third affected individual was compound het for the duplication and a splicing variant. mRNA expression assays detected aberrant alternative transcripts and unbalanced levels of expression.

Zornitza Stark gene: MET was added gene: MET was added to Skeletal dysplasia. Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: MET was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted Publications for gene: MET were set to 26637977 Phenotypes for gene: MET were set to {Osteofibrous dysplasia, susceptibility to} 607278 Review for gene: MET was set to AMBER Added comment: OSFD is characterized by radiolucent lesions located at the periosteal surface of the diaphyseal cortex, almost exclusively of the tibia and fibula. These lesions are congenital and spontaneously resolve during skeletal maturation. Three germline variants and one ?somatic variant identified in PMID 26637977, all abolished the splice inclusion of exon 14 in MET transcripts, which resulted in a MET receptor (MET(Δ14)) lacking a cytoplasmic juxtamembrane domain. Incomplete penetrance. Sources: Literature |

Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: DMRT2 was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal Publications for gene: DMRT2 were set to PMID: 41014130; 29681102; 16387292 Phenotypes for gene: DMRT2 were set to skeletal dysplasia MONDO:0018230; DMRT2-related Review for gene: DMRT2 was set to AMBER Added comment: PMID: 41014130 Rips et al 2025 report a newborn of consanguineous non-AJ ancestry with severe costovertebral malformations, dysmorphism and homozygous LoF DMRT2 variant identified on singleton exome sequencing (no parental testing). The patient also had congenital heart disease, bilateral duplicated kidneys, cleft palate, inguinal hernias.This patient also had immunodeficiency with thymic aplasia, absence of TRECs on NBS, profound lymphopenia with death at 3 months of age from CMV pneumonitis. Prenatal features include severe polyhydramnios. PMID: 29681102 Bouman et al 2018 report a male neonate of consanguineous North African descent with thoracic vertebral anomalies, rib anomalies, dysmorphism and severe respiratory deficiency resulting in neonatal death at 9 days of age. Extra-skeletal anomalies included aberrate right subclavian artery, non-functional left kidney and tetehterd cord.Prenatal features included increased NT (8.0mm), scoliosis (15+4 weeks), IUGR/kyphoscoliosis/small thoracic cage (28+2 weeks). Trio WES identified a homozygous start-loss DMRT2 variant (c.1A>T p.Met1?) classified as a VUS. In addition, a homozygous canonical acceptor site variant in the non-canonical transcript was detected in SH3PXD2B associated with Frank-Ter Haar syndrome which is also known to have skeletal features including rarely respiratory failure leading to neonatal death (PMID: 31978614). The parents were heterozygous for both sets of variants and the unaffected sibling was homozygous wild-type. PMID: 16387892 Seo et al 2006 report a knockout mouse model with abnormal rib and sternal development, respiratory insufficiency. Overlapping features between the 2 unrelated patients and the mouse model include severe skeletal manifestations. However, one of the reported cases also had an alternative genomic finding relevant to skeletal issues. Other overlapping features observed in the 2 patients and not in the mouse include congenital heart defects and CAKUT. Sources: Literature |

Chirag Patel gene: DDX41 was added gene: DDX41 was added to Skeletal dysplasia. Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: DDX41 was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal Publications for gene: DDX41 were set to PMID: 39453476 Phenotypes for gene: DDX41 were set to Bone dysplasia, ichthyosis, and dysmorphism Review for gene: DDX41 was set to RED Added comment: 1 patient with acromesomelic dysplasia (short stature, premature closure of epiphyses of hands/feet), chronic ichthyotic-like skin changes, joint pain, facial dysmorphism, dental crowding, difficulty in swallowing, hyperinsulinism, and absent breast development.. WES identified compound heterozygous DDX41 variants (p.Met155Ile and p.Glu345Lys). Parents confirmed carriers of single variant. DDX41 (DEAD‑box helicase 41) is a member of the largest family of RNA helicases. The DEAD-box RNA helicases regulate all aspects of RNA metabolism. DDX41 acts as a sensor of viral DNA and activates the STING-TBK1-IRF3-type I IFN signaling pathway. Functional analyses of the patient-derived dermal fibroblasts revealed a reduced abundance of DDX41 and abrogated activation of the IFN genes through the STING-type I interferon pathway. Genome-wide transcriptome analyses in the patient's fibroblasts revealed significant gene dysregulation and changes in the RNA splicing events. The patient's fibroblasts also displayed upregulation of periostin mRNA expression. Using an RNA binding protein assay, they identified DDX41 as a novel regulator of periostin expression.

All variants clustered within the ninth zinc finger motif of EVI1. -Functional experiments showed that MECOM R781C led to alterations in TGF-β–mediated transcriptional responses.
