目的 对1例常染色体隐性遗传表皮松弛症患者的PYCR1基因进行变异分析,明确其遗传学病因。 方法 收集患者的外周静脉血进行染色体核型分析、单核苷酸多态性微阵列芯片(single nucleotide polymorphism array,SNP-array)分析及全外显子测序(whole exome sequencing,WES),并通过Sanger测序进行位点验证。 结果 患者的外周静脉血中检测到PYCR1基因的4号外显子存在1个来源未知的纯合变异c.345delC(p.R116Gfs*6),为移码突变,目前,国内尚未见报道。 结论 PYCR1基因的4号外显子c.345delC(p.R116Gfs*6)纯合变异为患者表皮松弛的病因,为其后续生育提供了遗传学依据。 Objective To analyze the variations in the PYCR1 gene of a patient with autosomal recessive inherited cutis laxa. Methods Chromosome karyotyping analysis, SNP-array and WES were performed on blood samples. Candidate variants were verified by Sanger sequencing. Results A homozygous mutation c. 345delC(p.R116Gfs*6) was identified in exon 4 of the PYCR1 gene through WES, which is a frame shift mutation. At present, no studies have reported it in China. Conclusion The homozygous mutation c. 345delC(p.R116Gfs*6) variant in exon4 of the PYCR1 is pathogenic cause of cutis laxa. It provide genetic basis for future reproduction.
