The publication citation from a presentation given by Essawi et al. at the American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG 2018) conference ("A homozygous missense variant in NUDT6 is responsible for an autosomal recessive form of osteogenesis imperfecta").

A consanguineous Palestinian family with 3 affected individuals with clinical diagnosis of OI. Exome sequencing revealed a novel homozygous missense variant (c.308G>T, p.Arg103Leu) in exon 2 of NUDT6 gene. The variant segregated with the disease in the family (6 non-affected family members were either heterozygous carriers or non-carriers). NUDT6 is an expression regulator for the FGF2 gene. Functional studies show that NUDT6 was down-regulated in the proband's dermal fibroblasts and FGF2 was upregulated (RT-qPCR). Overexpression of the wild type and mutant NUDT6 gene in different cell lines showed significantly decreased levels of mutant NUDT6 RNA expression.
