Abstract excerpt
Mandibular hypoplasia, Deafness and Progeroid features with concomitant Lipodystrophy define a rare systemic disorder, named MDPL Syndrome, due to almost always a de novo variant in POLD1 gene, encoding the DNA polymerase δ. We report a MDPL female heterozygote for the recurrent p.Ser605del variant. In order to deepen the functional role of the in frame deletion affecting the polymerase catalytic site of the...
