Functional and genetic analyses of ZYG11B provide evidences for its involvement in OAVS
Abstract Background The Oculo‐Auriculo‐Vertebral Spectrum (OAVS) or Goldenhar Syndrome is an embryonic developmental disorder characterized by hemifacial microsomia associated with auricular, ocular and vertebral malformations. The clinical heterogeneity of this spectrum and its incomplete penetranc...

Methods A sporadic case of OAVS was analyzed by whole exome sequencing in trio strategy. The identified candidate gene, ZYG11B, was screened in 143 patients by next generation sequencing. Overexpression and immunofluorescence of wild‐type and mutated ZYG11B forms were performed in Hela cells. Moreover, morpholinos were used for transient knockdown of its homologue in zebrafish embryo.

This variant leads in vitro to a truncated protein whose subcellular localization is altered. Transient knockdown of the zebrafish homologue gene confirmed its role in craniofacial cartilages architecture and in notochord development. Moreover, ZYG11B expression regulates a cartilage master regulator, SOX6, and is regulated by Retinoic Acid, a known developmental toxic molecule leading to clinical features of OAVS. Conclusion Based on genetic, cellular and animal model data, we proposed ZYG11B as a novel rare causative gene for OAVS.https://doi.org/10.1002/mgg3.1375craniofacial anomaliesetiologygeneticsGoldenharhemifacial microsomiaOAVS |
