Novel GNB1 de novo mutation in a patient with neurodevelopmental disorder and cutaneous mastocytosis: Clinical report and literature review

Eur J Med Genet. 2018 Mar;61(3):157-160. doi: 10.1016/j.ejmg.2017.11.010. Epub 2017 Nov 23.

Abstract

De novo monoallelic mutations in the GNB1 gene, encoding a β subunit of heterotrimeric G proteins, cause a newly recognized disorder with the typical clinical picture of severe developmental delay/intellectual disability, hypotonia and extrapyramidal symptoms. We describe another case of the condition with manifestations of cutaneous mastocytosis associated with a novel do novo mutation GNB1NM_001282539.1: c.230G > T; p.(Gly77Val). We also present the detailed clinical and etiopathogenetic discussion on previously diagnosed patients as well as suggestions for the link of the mutation with skin disease.

Keywords: Developmental delay; Exome sequencing; Extrapyramidal symptoms; GNB1; Hypotonia; Mastocytosis.
