Any mosaic variegated aneuploidy syndrome in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the CEP57 gene.
Features include always present findings: Short stature, Narrow mouth, Short nose, and Prominent forehead and others; and very common findings: Epicanthus and Small for gestational age. 48 total HPO annotations.
Organ System | Phenotype Count | Example Features |
|---|---|---|
Growth and development | 5 | Short stature, Severe intrauterine growth retardation, Decreased response to growth hormone stimulation test |
CEP57 encodes centrosomal protein 57 (500 aa). Centrosomal protein which may be required for microtubule attachment to centrosomes. May act by forming ring-like structures around microtubules. Highest expression in Cells EBV-transformed lymphocytes (46.5 TPM) and Testis (37.7 TPM).
Mosaic variegated aneuploidy syndrome 2 is caused by mutations in the CEP57 gene on chromosome 11.
CEP57 is classified as a druggable target (Clinically Actionable category) with score 0.0.
Genetic testing for CEP57 is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
Phenotype severity distribution: 25 always present features, 2 very common features, 12 common features.
No clinical trials have been registered for mosaic variegated aneuploidy syndrome 2.
5 publications have been identified in PubMed for mosaic variegated aneuploidy syndrome 2. Research spans Review / Meta-Analysis (40%), Basic Science / Preclinical (40%), and Case Report / Case Series (20%).
