Overlapping syndrome with familial partial lipodystrophy, Dunnigan variety and cardiomyopathy due to amino‐terminal heterozygous missense lamin A/C mutations
22 Dec 2009
Abstract excerpt
Familial partial lipodystrophy, Dunnigan variety (FPLD) is a well-recognized autosomal dominant disorder due to heterozygous missense mutations in lamin A/C (LMNA) gene. Most of the FPLD patients harbor mutations in the C-terminal of the lamin A/C and do not develop cardiomyopathy. On the other hand, affected subjects from three FPLD pedigrees with heterozygous R28W, R60G and R62G LMNA mutations in the...
