A variant in <i>SMOC2,</i> inhibiting BMP signaling by competitively binding to BMPR1B, causes multiple epiphyseal dysplasia
2020-01-28
Abstract excerpt
Previously study showed that SMOC, a matricellular protein, inhibits BMP signaling downstream of its receptor via activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling. In our study, exome sequencing revealed a missense mutation (c.1076T>G, p.Leu359Arg) in EC domain of SMOC2 in a Chinese family with multiple epiphyseal disease (MED). The pathogenicity of this SMOC2 variant was verified by Smoc2 L359R/L...
