一例琥珀酸半醛脱氢酶缺陷症患儿的基因变异分析CSCD

目的探讨1例琥珀酸半醛脱氢酶缺陷症患儿的遗传学病因。方法采集患儿及其父母的外周血样,提取基因组DNA,用Sanger测序和全外显子组测序对患儿及其父母进行检测,分析变异位点的致病性。结果Sanger测序结果提示患儿携带ALDH5A1基因c.1529C>T(p.S510F)纯合变异,其母亲为杂合型,父亲未检测到此变异。全外显子组测序发现患儿及其父亲均携带ALDH5A1基因片段缺失(chr6:24403265-24566986)。结论ALDH5A1基因c.1529C>T变异及缺失是患儿的致病原因。全外显子组测序能同时检测碱基变异和基因片段缺失,为患儿的诊断和遗传咨询提供依据。

Analysis of gene variant in an infant with succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiencyCSCD

Objective To explore the genetic basis for a child with succinate semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency. Methods Peripheral blood samples of the proband and his parents were collected and subjected to Sanger sequencing. High-throughput sequencing was used to verify the gene variants. Bioinformatic software was used to analyze the pathogenicity of the variant sites. Results Sanger sequencing showed that the proband carried a homozygous c. 1529C>T (p.S510F)variant of the ALDH5A1 gene, for which his mother was a carrier. The same variant was not detected in his father. However, high-throughput sequencing revealed that the child and his father both had a deletion of ALDH5A1 gene fragment(chr6: 24 403 265-24 566 986). Conclusion The c. 1529C>T variant of the ALDH5A1 gene and deletion of ALDH5A1 gene fragment probably underlay the disease in the child. High-throughput sequencing can detect site variation as well as deletion of gene fragment, which has enabled genetic diagnosis and counseling for the family. © 2022 West China University of Medical Sciences.
