Genotype-phenotype correlations of UBA2 mutations in patients with ectrodactyly.

Interstitial 19q13.11 deletions are associated with ectrodactyly, which has recently been linked to loss-of-function of the UBA2 gene. We report a boy with a de novo frameshift mutation in UBA2 (c.612delA (p.(Glu205Lysfs*63)), presenting with ectrodactyly of the feet associated with learning difficulties and minor physical anomalies. We review genotype-phenotype correlations in patients with chromosomal 19q13.11 microdeletions compared to those with intragenic UBA2 mutations.
