Genetic analysis and prenatal diagnosis for a pedigree affected with X-linked Norrie disease / 中华医学遗传学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To detect mutation of NDP gene in a pedigree affected with Norrie disease.@*METHODS@#Sanger sequencing was used to analyze the NDP gene at Xp11.3. Prenatal diagnosis was performed on amniotic fluid sample after the causative gene was detected.@*RESULTS@#Sanger sequencing has revealed a c.2T>C (p.M1T) missense mutation of the NDP gene in the proband and the fetus. The same variation was not found in ClinVar and HGMD database.@*CONCLUSION@#The c.2T>C mutation of the NDP gene probably underlies the Norrie disease in this pedigree.
