Identification of three novel TCOF1 mutations in patients with Treacher Collins Syndrome

Abstract Here we describe three novel TCOF1 mutations found in unrelated patients with Treacher Collins syndrome. These mutations include one deletion, NM_001135243.2:c.2604_2605delAG (p.Gly869Glufs*3), and two substitutions, NM_001135243.2:c.2575C>T (p.Gln859*) and NM_001135243.2:c.4111G>T (p...

description Abstract Here we describe three novel TCOF1 mutations found in unrelated patients with Treacher Collins syndrome. These mutations include one deletion, NM_001135243.2:c.2604_2605delAG (p.Gly869Glufs*3), and two substitutions, NM_001135243.2:c.2575C>T (p.Gln859*) and NM_001135243.2:c.4111G>T (p.Glu1371*). These mutations cause shortening of a protein called Treacle in patients with features typical of TCS. Continuous identification of new mutations is important to expand the mutation base, which is helpful in the diagnosis of both patients and their families
