Skeletal dysplasia v0.289 | DDX41 |
Chirag Patel gene: DDX41 was added gene: DDX41 was added to Skeletal dysplasia. Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: DDX41 was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal Publications for gene: DDX41 were set to PMID: 39453476 Phenotypes for gene: DDX41 were set to Bone dysplasia, ichthyosis, and dysmorphism Review for gene: DDX41 was set to RED Added comment: 1 patient with acromesomelic dysplasia (short stature, premature closure of epiphyses of hands/feet), chronic ichthyotic-like skin changes, joint pain, facial dysmorphism, dental crowding, difficulty in swallowing, hyperinsulinism, and absent breast development.. WES identified compound heterozygous DDX41 variants (p.Met155Ile and p.Glu345Lys). Parents confirmed carriers of single variant. DDX41 (DEAD‑box helicase 41) is a member of the largest family of RNA helicases. The DEAD-box RNA helicases regulate all aspects of RNA metabolism. DDX41 acts as a sensor of viral DNA and activates the STING-TBK1-IRF3-type I IFN signaling pathway. Functional analyses of the patient-derived dermal fibroblasts revealed a reduced abundance of DDX41 and abrogated activation of the IFN genes through the STING-type I interferon pathway. Genome-wide transcriptome analyses in the patient's fibroblasts revealed significant gene dysregulation and changes in the RNA splicing events. The patient's fibroblasts also displayed upregulation of periostin mRNA expression. Using an RNA binding protein assay, they identified DDX41 as a novel regulator of periostin expression.
