RCV002521465 | SCV003440195 | pathogenic | Mucopolysaccharidosis, MPS-III-C; Retinitis pigmentosa 73 | 2024-11-14 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln454*) in the HGSNAT gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in HGSNAT are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17033958, 19479962). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with mucopolysaccharidosis type III (PMID: 27733599). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 374408). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |

RCV000415469 | SCV000323116 | pathogenic | Mucopolysaccharidosis, MPS-III-C | 2016-03-01 | no assertion criteria provided | research | As a result of genetic community visits in Boyacá, two patients with a phenotype compatible with MPS III in the village of Runta, adjacent to the city of Tunja rural area were identified. The research group Clinical Genetics at the National University of Colombia visited this place, leading to the identification of three more patients with the same presentation. In the first two cases identified, enzymatic assays for MPS III A and III B with negative results. Considering that MPS IIID is much less common, we considered MPS IIIC as a higher probability, so that the complete sequence of the gene HGSNAT, which revealed homozygous state, a new causal mutation was obtained. Mutation analysis in the remaining patients confirmed that all harboring the same mutation also in the homozygous state. All patients had coarse features that had become evident around 12 to 18 months and facial hirsutism. Hirsutism body was present in 80% of patients. Three patients had painful contractures of the large joints (hip, elbow and knee), as well as claw hand deformity. All patients had multiple disostosis and cranial hyperostosis and two patients had kyphosis. In all patients expressive language delay was presented, none of the patients becomes normal language for their chronological age, inattentiveness, echolalia and anxiety is evident. |
