Examples of mutations detected by sequence analysis may include small intragenic deletions/insertions and missense, nonsense, and splice site mutations; typically, exonic or whole-gene deletions/duplications are not detected.2. Testing that identifies deletions/duplications not readily detectable by sequence analysis of the coding and flanking intronic regions of genomic DNA; included in the variety of methods that may be used are: quantitative PCR, long-range PCR, multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA), and chromosomal microarray (CMA) that includes this gene/chromosome segment.3. No deletions or duplications of CUL7 or OBSL1 have been reported to cause 3-M syndrome. (Note: By definition, deletion/duplication analysis identifies rearrangements that are not identifiable by sequence analysis of genomic DNA.)4. Huber et al [2011] 5.

Genes and Databases and/or Pathologic allelic variants).Testing Strategy To confirm/establish the diagnosis in a proband. The diagnosis is based on clinical and radiographic findings. Molecular genetic testing is appropriate if the diagnosis is not clinically certain, if prenatal diagnosis is considered, and/or if relatives want to be tested. The recommended order of testing the three genes is by likelihood of identifying disease causing mutations: 1.CUL7 2.If no CUL7 disease-causing mutations are identified, OBSL1 3.If no OBSL1 disease-causing mutations are identified, CCDC8Carrier testing for at-risk relatives requires prior identification of the disease-causing mutations in the family.Note: Carriers are heterozygotes for this autosomal recessive disorder and are not at risk of developing the disorder.Prenatal diagnosis and preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) for at-risk pregnancies require prior identification of the disease-causing mutations in the family.Genetically Related (Allelic) Disorders3-M syndrome is the only disorder known to be associated with mutations in CUL7, OBSL1, or CCDC8.
Clinical Description GeneReviews | The most striking feature of 3-M syndrome is the severe growth retardation, starting in utero. Birth length is 40-42 cm, whereas the head size is normal for gestational age, giving a disproportionate appearance. Catch-up growth does not occur; final height is 5-6 SD below the mean (i.e., 120-130 cm) [van der Wal et al 2001].... |
Genotype-Phenotype Correlations GeneReviews | No genotype-phenotype correlations have been reported to date. ... |
Differential Diagnosis GeneReviews | Intrauterine growth retardation is a nonspecific finding that occurs in approximately 0.17% of all live-born children. 3-M syndrome must be distinguished from other forms of intrauterine growth retardation-malformation syndromes, including the following: ... |
Management GeneReviews | To establish the extent of disease in an individual diagnosed with 3-M syndrome, the following evaluations are recommended:... |
