Neonatal cholestasis
Gene: SLC27A5Comment when marking as ready: Not associated with phenotype in OMIM or in Gen2Phen. A homozygous SLC27A5 variant (c.1012C>T, p.H338Y) was identified in two sibblings; the index case was born prematurely (27 weeks) and developed jaundice, with extensive fibrosis and architectural distortion, in addition the bile acids in her plasma and urine were >85% unconjugated (non-amidated). She was also homozygous for a deleterious variant in ABCB11 (well established neonatal cholestasis associated gene). The sister was heterozygous for the ABCB11 variant, however, she had the same bile-acid phenotype but not the clinical liver damage, thereby suggesting that SLC27A5 may have some impact of the severity of the condition in this case (PMID 22089923).Created: 21 Aug 2018, 10:22 a.m.
