POLD1 function has not been fully characterized.
Mandibular hypoplasia-deafness-progeroid syndrome is caused by mutations in the POLD1 gene on chromosome 19.
Genetic testing for POLD1 is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
Biomarker and diagnostic research for mandibular hypoplasia-deafness-progeroid syndrome has been reported in the published literature.
Phenotype severity distribution: 13 always present features, 7 common features.
Estimated prevalence: <1 in 1,000,000 (VERY_RARE).
No clinical trials have been registered for mandibular hypoplasia-deafness-progeroid syndrome.
204 publications have been identified in PubMed for mandibular hypoplasia-deafness-progeroid syndrome. Kisho has analyzed 107 by research type. Research spans Review / Meta-Analysis (34%), Basic Science / Preclinical (26%), and Case Report / Case Series (20%).
