A Novel Missense Variant in the NKX2-1 Homeodomain Prevents Transcriptional Rescue by TAZ

[Background] Brain–lung–thyroid syndrome (BLTS) is caused by NKX2-1 haploinsufficiency, resulting in chorea/choreoathetosis, respiratory problems, and hypothyroidism. Genes interacting with NKX2-1 mutants influence its phenotypic variability. We report a novel NKX2-1 missense variant and the modifie...

Descripción
Sumario:[Background] Brain–lung–thyroid syndrome (BLTS) is caused by NKX2-1 haploinsufficiency, resulting in chorea/choreoathetosis, respiratory problems, and hypothyroidism. Genes interacting with NKX2-1 mutants influence its phenotypic variability. We report a novel NKX2-1 missense variant and the modifier function of TAZ/WWTR1 in BLTS.
