Say-Barber-Biesecker-Young-Simpson syndrome (SBBYSS) and genitopatellar syndrome (GPS) are caused by variants of lysine acetyltransferase 6B (). These variants tend to occur in the terminal exons of . Here, we report a patient with global developmental delay, intellectual disability, autistic behavior, muscular hypotonia, facial dysmorphism, and seizures caused by a novel missense variant in exon 7 of . The patient showed a phenotype differing from those of SBBYSS and GPS. We also report patients with missense variants in the proximal exons of showing dysmorphic features and autistic behavior not resembling the characteristics of SBBYSS and GPS. Missense variants in the proximal exons of may have a dominant negative effect or cause gain of function, leading to unique phenotypes not resembling those of SBBYSS and GPS.
赛-巴伯-比塞克-杨-辛普森综合征(SBBYSS)和生殖器髌骨综合征(GPS)由赖氨酸乙酰转移酶6B(KAT6B)的变异引起。这些变异倾向于出现在KAT6B的末端外显子中。在此,我们报告一名患者,其因KAT6B外显子7中的一个新型错义变异而出现全球发育迟缓、智力残疾、自闭症行为、肌张力减退、面部畸形和癫痫发作。该患者表现出与SBBYSS和GPS不同的表型。我们还报告了KAT6B近端外显子存在错义变异的患者,他们表现出畸形特征和自闭症行为,与SBBYSS和GPS的特征不同。KAT6B近端外显子中的错义变异可能具有显性负效应或导致功能获得,从而导致与SBBYSS和GPS不同的独特表型。
