Prader-willi Syndrome Due To A Point Mutation

Description

SHFYNG syndrome is an autosomal dominant multisystem disorder characterized by delayed psychomotor development, intellectual disability (ID), hypotonia, and behavioral abnormalities. Additional features include contractures, feeding difficulties, and variable dysmorphic facial features. The severity of the disorder is highly variable: some patients may die in utero with fetal akinesia, whereas others can live with moderate disability. Individuals are affected only if the mutation occurs on the paternal allele, since MAGEL2 is a maternally imprinted gene (summary by Fountain et al., 2017)
