Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Mandibular hypoplasia, Deafness, Progeroid features, and Lipodystrophy (MDPL) syndrome is a very rare genetic disorder linked to variants in the POLD1 gene, which encodes the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase delta, a key enzyme involved in DNA replication and repair. Most patients carry a recurrent in frame deletion (p.Ser605del) within the active site of the p125 subunit. Despite its rarity,...
