Opitz GBBB syndrome (GBBB) is an X-linked disease characterized by midline defects, including congenital heart defects. We present our diagnostic approach to the identification of GBBB in a consanguineous family in which two males siblings were concordant for a total anomalous connection of pulmonary veins and minor facial dysmorphias.
Targeted exome sequencing analysis of a 380-gene panel associated with cardiovascular disease was performed on the propositus. Interpretative analysis of the exome results was conducted, and 3D models of the protein changes were generated.
We identified a NM_000381.4:c.608G>A;p.(Arg203Gln) change in MID1, affecting the conformation of the B-box 2 domain of the protein, with a zinc finger structure and associated protein interactions. This clinical phenotype is consistent with GBBB; however, the type of congenital heart disease observed in this case has not been previously reported.
A new likely pathogenic variant on MID1 c.608G>A was found to be associated with Opitz GBBB syndrome.
Opitz GBBB 综合征(GBBB)是一种 X 连锁疾病,其特征为中线缺陷,包括先天性心脏缺陷。我们报告了在一个有亲缘关系的家庭中,通过鉴定 GBBB 的方法,该家庭中有两名男性兄弟存在肺静脉总异常连接和轻微的面部畸形。
对先证者进行了与心血管疾病相关的 380 个基因panel 的靶向外显子组测序分析。对外显子结果进行了解释性分析,并生成了蛋白质变化的 3D 模型。
我们发现 MID1 中的 NM_000381.4:c.608G>A;p.(Arg203Gln) 变化,该变化影响蛋白质的 B 盒 2 结构域的构象,具有锌指结构和相关的蛋白质相互作用。这种临床表型与 GBBB 一致;然而,在这种情况下观察到的先天性心脏病类型以前没有报道过。
发现 MID1 c.608G>A 的新的可能致病性变异与 Opitz GBBB 综合征有关。
