Abetalipoproteinemia in Israel: evidence for a founder mutation in the Ashkenazi Jewish population and a contiguous gene deletion in an Arab patient.

Abstract:

:Abetalipoproteinemia (ABL) is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disorder, characterized by the absence of plasma apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins and very low levels of plasma triglycerides and cholesterol. ABL is caused by mutations of the MTP gene. We investigated the genetic basis for ABL in a cohort of Israeli families. In Ashkenazi Jewish patients we identified a conserved haplotype and a common MTP mutation, p.G865X, with a carrier frequency of 1:131 in this population. We also report the first case of ABL and additional abnormalities in a Muslim Arab patient, due to a homozygous contiguous gene deletion of approximately 481 kb, including MTP and eight other genes.

  • Sensitive quantification of mosaicism using high density SNP arrays and the cumulative distribution function.

    abstract::Medicine is rapidly applying exome and genome sequencing to the diagnosis and management of human disease.
