Skeletal dysplasia
Gene: IFT43
Cilliopathies with major skeletal involvement gp of SDs. Only one case reported with cranioectodermal dysplasia and two families for short-rib thoracic dysplasia. Variants have also been reported in a few cases with retinal degneration.; Review on behalf of Tracy LesterCreated: 6 Mar 2019, 11:44 a.m.
Mode of inheritance
BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Phenotypes

Associated with ?Cranioectodermal dysplasia 3 (#614099) and Short-rib thoracic dysplasia 18 with polydactyly (#617866) in OMIM and with CRANIOECTODERMAL DYSPLASIA TYPE 3 (confirmed) in Gene2Phenotype.
PMID: 21378380- Arts et al. 2011 - 1 case . 2 siblings from a consanguineous family of Moroccan descent with cranioectodermal dysplasia (Sensenbrenner syndrome). The reported phenotype includes Rhizomelic shortening of limbs, narrow thorax, toe syndactyly, brachydactyly, and polydactyly (one sibling). Following genome-wide homozygosity mapping two candidate genes were analyzed and a homozygous missense mutation in the translation initiation codon of the IFT43 gene was identified. Fibroblasts from one of the affected siblings (II:2) show a typical IFT-A defect (ie, accumulation of IFT-B complex proteins in the ciliary tip.
PMID: 28400947 - Duran et al. 2017- 2 cases - in 3 affected individuals from 2 unrelated families with short-rib thoracic dysplasia with polydactyly they identified homozygosity for missense mutations in the IFT143 gene, M1K and W179R.
PMID: 26892345 - Stokman et al 2016 - 11-year-old girl with mild intellectual disability, skeletal anomalies, congenital heart defect, myopia, and facial dysmorphisms including an extra incisor, cup-shaped ears, and a preauricular skin tag. They de novo 4.5-Mb microdeletion which contains 65 protein-coding genes, including the ciliary gene IFT43. Immunocytochemistry showed increased accumulation of IFT-B proteins at the ciliary tip in patient-derived fibroblasts compared to control cells, demonstrating defective retrograde ciliary transport.Created: 16 Jul 2019, 11:09 a.m. | Last Modified: 17 Jul 2019, 1:49 p.m.
