Features include always present findings: Thoracic hypoplasia, Brachydactyly, Low muscle tone (hypotonia), and Disproportionate short-limb short stature and others; and common findings: Flexion contracture, Small pituitary gland, Flat face, and Trident pelvis and others. 35 total HPO annotations.
Organ System | Phenotype Count | Example Features |
|---|---|---|
Brain and nerves | 4 | Enlarged brain ventricles (ventriculomegaly), Delayed speech and language development, Delayed gross motor development |
KIAA0753 encodes KIAA0753 (967 aa). Involved in centriole duplication. Positively regulates CEP63 centrosomal localization. Required for WDR62 centrosomal localization and promotes the centrosomal localization of CDK2. Highest expression in Esophagus Muscularis (26.9 TPM) and Testis (24.8 TPM).
Short-rib thoracic dysplasia 21 without polydactyly is associated with mutations in the KIAA0753 gene on chromosome 17.
KIAA0753 is classified as a druggable target with score 0.0.
Genetic testing for KIAA0753 is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
Phenotype severity distribution: 13 always present features, 13 common features.
No clinical trials have been registered for short-rib thoracic dysplasia 21 without polydactyly.
2 publications have been identified in PubMed for short-rib thoracic dysplasia 21 without polydactyly. Research spans Review / Meta-Analysis (50%) and Epidemiology / Natural History (50%).
