To investigate PHEX gene mutations in 2 patients with X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH) and their families and to clarify the genetic etiology.
A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of two patients with XLH. High-throughput sequencing was used to detect the PHEX gene, a pathogenic gene of XLH. PCR-Sanger sequencing was used to verify the distribution of mutations in families.
Both patients had novel mutations in the PHEX gene; one patient had a frameshift mutation, c.931dupC, which caused early termination of translation and produced the truncated protein p.Gln311Profs*13; the other patient had a splice site mutation, IVS14+1G>A, which caused the skipping of exon 15 and produced an incomplete amino acid chain. Their parents had normal gene phenotypes.
c.931dupC and IVS14+1G>A are two novel mutations of the PHEX gene and might be the new pathogenic mutations of XLH.
研究2例X连锁低磷性佝偻病(XLH)患者及其家系的PHEX基因突变情况,明确其遗传病因。
对2例XLH患者的临床资料进行回顾性分析。采用高通量测序检测XLH致病基因PHEX基因,用PCR-Sanger测序验证家系中突变的分布情况。
2例患者PHEX基因均存在新的突变;1例患者发生移码突变c.931dupC,导致翻译提前终止,产生截短蛋白p.Gln311Profs*13;另1例患者发生剪接位点突变IVS14+1G>A,导致外显子15跳跃,产生不完整的氨基酸链。他们的父母基因表型正常。
c.931dupC和IVS14+1G>A是PHEX基因的两个新突变,可能是XLH的新致病突变。
