Loss of function variants in <i>PCYT1A</i> causing spondylometaphyseal dysplasia with cone/rod dystrophy have broad consequences on lipid metabolism, chondrocyte differentiation, and lipid droplet formation
2019-12-19
Abstract excerpt
Spondylometaphyseal dysplasia with cone-rod dystrophy (SMD-CRD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of the skeleton and the retina caused by biallelic variants in PCYT1A , encoding the nuclear enzyme CTP:phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase α (CCTα), which catalyzes the rate-limiting step in phosphatidylcholine (PC) biosynthesis by the Kennedy pathway. As a first step in understanding the consequences of PCYT1...
