Segmental overgrowth disorders - Deep sequencing
Gene: PIK3CAComment on mode of inheritance: Changed MOI from 'Other' to 'monoallelic' following discussion with clinical team.Created: 11 Apr 2017, 1:32 p.m.
In a number of patients with CLOVE syndrome (OMIM:612918), Kurek et al., 2012 (PMID:22658544) identified somatic mosaic mutations in the PIK3CA gene (H1047R rs121913279, E542K rs121913273, C420R rs121913272 mutations) in affected tissues. They concluded that CLOVE syndrome is caused by postzygotic activating mutations in PIK3CA. Full details are available on OMIM.
In a number of patients with MCAP (OMIM:602501), mosaic mutations have been found (G914R rs587776932, C378Y rs397514565, H1047Y rs121913281); the C378Y mutation shows varying levels of mosaicsm. Full details are available on OMIM.

Mode of inheritance for PIK3CA was changed to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted
28 November 2016: Reviews were assessed, and panel was revised according to expert review and additional curation.
Mode of inheritance for PIK3CA was changed to Other - please specifiy in evaluation comments
