Chirag Patel (Genetic Health Queensland)
2 additional patients from 2 unrelated families with complex neuromuscular syndrome characterized by generalized hypotonia, congenital myopathy, facial nerve palsy, growth restriction and facial dysmorphism. Additional variable features include hearing loss (confirmed in one patient, suspected in the other), scoliosis, joint contractures, cleft palate, hypoglossia, and cerebellar atrophy and Chiari 1 deformity. WES identified a homozygous truncating variant [c.107T>A, (p.Leu36Ter)] and a homozygous stop-codon loss variant [c.255A>G, (p.Ter85TrpextTer41)] in MYMX.

Bryony Thompson (Royal Melbourne Hospital)
Single family, two siblings with weakness of the facial musculature, hypomimic face, increased overbite, micrognathia, and facial dysmorphism with homozygous p.Arg46*. The phenotype resembles CFZ syndrome. The variant prevents fusion of myoblasts from patient-derived iPSCs. Mouse model recapitulates a lethal CFZS-like phenotype.
