Article Synopsis
  • * Mutations in three specific genes (KYNU, HAAO, and NADSYN1) that are responsible for NAD synthesis lead to Congenital NAD Deficiency Disorder, causing multiple malformations, especially in the heart, kidneys, vertebrae, and limbs.
  • * Recent findings identify missense mutations that hinder enzyme function, resulting in significant NAD reduction, thereby linking these genetic variants directly to congenital malformations and expanding the understanding of this disorder.

Biallelic pathogenic variants in POC1A are ultra rare. They have been reported in 13 families as causing either Short stature, Onychodysplasia, Facial dysmorphism, and hypoTrichosis (SOFT) syndrome, or a milder partially overlapping phenotype, variant POC1A-related syndrome. This pleiotropic effect is likely precipitated by the variant's location and respective affected protein domain.
