The Say-Barber-Biesecker-Young-Simpson variant of Ohdo syndrome (SBBYSS) (MIM# 603736) and genitopatellar syndrome (GPS) (MIM#606170) are allelic diseases caused by KAT6B mutation. Genotype-phenotype correlation is assumed, but a few patients manifest overlapping features of both syndromes. Here we report the case of a boy with SBBYSS. He had a KAT6B mutation previously reported in typical SBBYSS, but he also manifested severe developmental delay, as well as genital features and laryngomalacia requiring tracheostomy that conformed to GPS.

Genitopatellar syndrome (GPS) and Say-Barber-Biesecker-Young-Simpson syndrome (SBBYSS) are rare genetic disorders linked to mutations in the Lysine Acetyltransferase 6B (KAT6B) gene, affecting histone acetylation regulation and developmental processes. We present a case of an African American infant with classic GPS features and a novel KAT6B gene mutation (c.4066del, p.

Background: Say-Barber-Biesecker-Young-Simpson (SBBYS) (OMIM #603736, Ohdo syndrome variant) is a rare type of severe blepharophimosis intellectual disability syndrome, which is generally characterized by a global developmental delay, distinctive facial features, and intellectual disability with multiple congenital anomalies, including skeletal involvement, missing, or underdeveloped kneecaps, and genital anomalies, in affected males. It has been shown that mutations in the KAT6B gene, which is a lysine acetyltransferase-encoding gene, have been associated with SBBYS syndrome. All the known variants are dominant de novo mutations that result in protein truncation.

Background: Say-Barber-Biesecker-Young-Simpson (SBBYSS) variant of Ohdo syndrome is a rare, autosomal dominant and clinically heterogenous disorder, caused by pathogenic variants in the KAT6B gene located on chromosome 10q22.2. KAT6B encodes a highly conserved histone acetyltransferase belonging to the MYST family.

Objective: To analyze the genotype and clinical phenotype of a 3-month-old female infant featuring unresponsiveness.
Methods: The infant was subjected to genetic testing, and her clinical features were compared with syndromes associated with variants of the candidate gene.
Results: The patient has featured long fingers, long and overlapped toes, musk-like face, blepharophimosis, ptosis, and lacrimal duct anomaly.
