Abstract excerpt
This schematic illustrates the genetic, molecular, and clinical consequences of ESAM loss-of-function variants identified in two unrelated Turkish families. Family 1 harbors a splice-site variant (c.451 + 5G>C) predicted to cause aberrant splicing between exons 3 and 4, leading to defective mRNA processing and loss of functional ESAM protein. Family 2 carries a nonsense variant (c.605 T>G; p.Leu202Ter) that...
