Genes, Vol. 12, Pages 945: A Homozygous Synonymous Variant Likely Cause of Severe Ciliopathy Phenotype
z Ergoren Joubert syndrome (OMIM #213300) is a rare neurodevelopmental disease characterized by abnormal breathing patterns, intellectual impairment, ocular findings, renal cysts, and hepatic fibrosis. It is classified as a ciliopathy disease, where cilia function or structure in various organs are affected. Here, we report a 17-year-old male whose main clinical findings are oculomotor apraxia and truncal ataxia. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed the characteristic molar tooth sign of Joubert syndrome. He also has obsessive–compulsive disorder concomitantly, which is not a known feature of Joubert syndrome. Molecul...

Novel compound heterozygous CPLANE1 variants identified in a Chinese family with Joubert syndrome
Int J Dev Neurosci. 2021 Jun 5. doi: 10.1002/jdn.10135. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTJoubert syndrome (JS) and JS-related disorders (JSRD) are a group of neurodevelopmental diseases that share the "molar tooth sign" on axial brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), accompanied by cerebellar vermis hypoplasia, ataxia, hypotonia, and developmental delay. To identify variants responsible for the clinical symptoms of a Chinese family with JS and to explore the genotype-phenotype associations, we conducted a series of clinical examinations, including blood tests, brain MRI scans, ultrasound imaging, and ophthalmologic examinati...
