Abstract excerpt
Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a common anomaly leading to adult osteoarthritis. Environmental and genetic factors contribute to DDH, but its exact genetic mechanism is unclear. In this study, we used whole exome sequencing to identify the causative gene of a DDH pedigree. A rare missense variant in KANSL1 (c.C767T; p.S256F) was identified as the pathogenic cause of DDH. Subsequent mutation screening...
