[Analysis of clinical phenotypes and KCNJ2 gene mutations in a Chinese pedigree affected with Andersen-Tawil syndrome].

Abstract

To analyze the clinical phenotypes of a pedigree affected with periodic paralysis and explore its molecular basis.Clinical data and peripheral blood samples of the pedigree were collected. The proband and his father both complained of periodic paralysis and dysmorphic features. The exome of the proband was screened using Roche NimbleGen probes, and the results were confirmed by Sanger sequencing. Suspected mutations were subjected to bioinformatic and gene-disease correlation analysis.A c.653G>A (p.R218Q) mutation of the KCNJ2 gene was detected in both the proband and his father. Bioinformatics analysis suggested it to be pathogenic.The clinical manifestation of the pedigree was suggestive of Andersen-Tawil syndrome. KCNJ2 c.653G>A (p.R218Q) was the pathogenic mutation in this pedigree.
