Additional Information:

Diagnosis OMIM Brookhyser et al. (1999) reviewed practices in prenatal diagnosis of RCDP. They presented a family with 1 daughter affected with RCDP due to deficiency of DHAPAT synthase, and 3 subsequent pregnancies. Postmortem tests of 1 fetus of a ...
Clinical Description OMIM The rhizomelic form of chondrodysplasia punctata is a peroxisomal disorder. Four peroxisomal abnormalities have been identified in the classic form of RCDP (RCDP1): deficiency of dihydroxyacetonephosphate acyltransferase (DHAPAT) and alkyl-DHAP synthase (EC 2.5.1.26), deficient phytanic acid alpha-oxidation, and ...
Molecular genetics OMIM In the patient with RCDP and isolated alkyl-DHAP synthase deficiency described by Wanders et al. (1994), de Vet et al. (1998) identified a homozygous missense mutation in the AGPS gene (R419H; 603051.0001).
