Fetal anomalies v1.58 | KIF5B |
Chirag Patel gene: KIF5B was added gene: KIF5B was added to Fetal anomalies. Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: KIF5B was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted Publications for gene: KIF5B were set to PMID: 35342932 Phenotypes for gene: KIF5B were set to Kyphomelic dysplasia, no OMIM # Review for gene: KIF5B was set to GREEN Added comment: 4 individuals with Kyphomelic dysplasia (severe bowing of the limbs, sharp angulation of the femora and humeri, short stature, narrow thorax, distinctive facial features, and neonatal respiratory distress. WES found de novo heterozygous missense variants in KIF5B encoding kinesin-1 heavy chain. All variants involved conserved amino acids in or close to the ATPase activity-related motifs in the catalytic motor domain of the KIF5B protein. No functional studies of variants. Previously 2 animal model experiments showed that loss of function of KIF5B can cause kyphomelic dysplasia. First, chondrocyte-specific knockout of Kif5b in mice was shown to produce a disorganized growth plate, leading to bone deformity. Second, double mutants disrupting the two zebrafish kif5b caused abnormal skeletal morphogenesis and the curvature of Meckel's and ceratohyal cartilages. Sources: Literature |
