Added comment: Calpena et al 2021 (PMID:33436522) identified 7 families in which the proband had craniosynostosis (affecting at least the sagittal suture in all cases) and a heterozygous SIX1 variant (4 nonsense + 3 missense in highly conserved residues of SIX domain or homeodomain). SIX1 mutations (mostly missense) were previously described in branchio-otic syndrome (BOS). Patients and carriers in the extended family variably had features of BOS (including branchial cysts, ear tags or pits, and hearing loss), but there were also several non-penetrant heterozygous individuals, indicating variation in expressivity. SIX1 analysis is therefore particularly indicated in individuals with either (1) additional BOS features or (2) sagittal+bilambdoid synostosis.
