This condition is characterized by neurological manifestations that include psychomotor delayed, intellectual disability and corpus callosum hypoplasia with distinct facial features. Case report: We present a 13 years-old female from Colombia, born to non-consanguineous parents. She was diagnosed at age of 2 years for psychomotor and language delay, facial dysmorphic features and sleep apnea with plagiocephaly. She has associated behavioral disorders that include self-harm, poor social interaction with isolation. Results: Chromosome analysis was normal (Kariotyping and CGH-array). WES (Whole Exome Sequencing) was performed at 12 years and revealed a novel heterozygous de novo frameshift variant c.1529delG (p.Gly510Alafs*12) in AHDC1 gene (NM_001029882.3), variant functional prediction software tools Mutation tester, Polyphen-2, and SIFT classified it as a deleterious variant. Discussion: The mutation reported here introduces a stop codon at the amino acid 522 of AHDC1 protein (1603 amino acids). This leads to the loss of one DNA-binding motif and PDZ carboxyl-terminal domain, which could truncate its interaction with other proteins and can be related to the neurobehavioural manifestations in our patient.application/pdfengAtribución-NoComercial-CompartirIgual 4.0 InternacionalSíndrome de Xia-GibbsTrastornos genéticosGen AHDC1Estudio de casoAnálisis cromosómicoSyndromic intellectual disability and developmental delay caused by novel de novo truncating variant in AHDC1 geneArtículo de revistaXia–Gibbs syndromeGenetic disordersAHDC1 geneCase study10.1038/s41431-019-0408-3instname:Universidad El Bosquereponame:Repositorio Institucional Universidad El Bosquerepourl:https://repositorio.unbosque.edu.coSyndromic intellectual disability and developmental delay caused by novel de novo truncating variant in AHDC1 geneAcceso abiertohttps://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAcceso abierto
