A new missense mutation in DPF2 gene related to Coffin Siris syndrome 7: Description of a mild phenotype expanding DPF2-related clinical spectrum and differential diagnosis among similar syndromes epigenetically determined.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Coffin-Siris syndrome (CSS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by somatic dysmorphic features, developmental and speech delay. It is due to mutations in many different genes, belonging to BAF chromatin-remodelling complex. The last gene involved in this complex, recently individuated and related to CSS, was DPF2, although only nine patients have been reported until now. METHOD: Here we...
