A locus for familial skewed X chromosome inactivation maps to chromosome Xq25 in a family with a female manifesting Lowe syndrome.

Abstract:

:In mammals, X-linked gene products can be dosage compensated between males and females by inactivation of one of the two X chromosomes in the developing female embryos. X inactivation choice is usually random in embryo mammals, but several mechanisms can influence the choice determining skewed X inactivation. As a consequence, females heterozygous for X-linked recessive disease can manifest the full phenotype. Herein, we report a family with extremely skewed X inactivation that produced the full phenotype of Lowe syndrome, a recessive X-linked disease, in a female. The X chromosome inactivation studies detected an extremely skewed inactivation pattern with a ratio of 100:0 in the propositus as well as in five out of seven unaffected female relatives in four generations. The OCRL1 "de novo" mutation resides in the active paternally inherited X chromosome. X chromosome haplotype analysis suggests the presence of a locus for the familial skewed X inactivation in chromosome Xq25 most likely controlling X chromosome choice in X inactivation or cell proliferation. The description of this case adds Lowe syndrome to the list of X-linked disorders which may manifest the full phenotype in females because of the skewed X inactivation.
