Any amelogenesis imperfecta in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the ITGB6 gene.
Features include common findings: Anterior open-bite malocclusion. 5 total HPO annotations.
ITGB6 encodes integrin subunit beta 6 (788 aa). Integrin alpha-V:beta-6 (ITGAV:ITGB6) is a receptor for fibronectin and cytotactin. It recognizes the sequence R-G-D in its ligands. Highest expression in Kidney Medulla (50.3 TPM) and Lung (23.7 TPM).
Amelogenesis imperfecta type 1H is associated with mutations in the ITGB6 gene on chromosome 2.
ITGB6 is classified as a druggable target (Cell Surface, Druggable Genome, and External Side Of Plasma Membrane categories) with score 6.5.
Genetic testing for ITGB6 is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
Phenotype severity distribution: 1 common feature.
No clinical trials have been registered for amelogenesis imperfecta type 1H.
3 publications have been identified in PubMed for amelogenesis imperfecta type 1H. Research spans Basic Science / Preclinical (100%).
