Description

In affected members from a large multigenerational Puerto Rican family segregating the Setleis type of focal facial dermal dysplasia (FFDD3; 227260), originally reported by Setleis et al. (1963), Tukel et al. (2010) identified homozygosity for a 486C-T transition in the TWIST2 gene, resulting in a gln119-to-ter (Q119X) substitution that was predicted to truncate the C terminus after the bHLH motif. Quantitative PCR in transfected HeLa cells revealed 3- to 4-fold decreased amounts of mRNA compared to wildtype; immunoblot analysis showed that the mutant protein was unstable, consistent with nonsense-mediated decay.
