A Dual Phenotype of Periventricular Nodular Heterotopia and Frontometaphyseal Dysplasia in One Patient Caused by a Single FLNA Mutation Leading to Two Functionally Different Aberrant Transcripts  Martin Zenker, Anita Rauch, Andreas Winterpacht, Andreas Tagariello, Cornelia Kraus, Thomas Rupprecht, Heinrich Sticht, André Reis  The American Journal of Human Genetics  Volume 74, Issue 4, Pages 731-737 (April 2004) DOI: 10.1086/383094 Copyright © 2004 The American Society of Human Genetics Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Diagram showing the structure of the filamin A homodimer, functional domains (left), and localization of the previously described and the novel mutations (right). Adapted from Stossel et al.

Figure 2 a, Cranial MRI of the patient at age 5 years, showing typical PVNHs (arrows). b–d, Clinical photographs of the patient at age 7 years: massively prominent supraorbital ridges; large-appearing eyes with hypertelorism; receding, pointed chin; slender, deformed thorax; genua valga et recurvata; and extension deficit in the elbows. e–h, Radiological findings of the patient at age 7 years. e, Skull radiograph showing increased density of the skull, with deficient pneumatization of mastoid and sinuses and a widely open anterior fontanel. f, Radiograph of the pelvis and hips, showing coxa valga et antetorta, with widened femoral necks. Radiographs of the right distal forearm and hand (g) and of the knees and lower legs (h), showing metaphyseal widening of long bones, short terminal phalanges, genua valga, and slight bending of tibiae and fibulae.

Figure 3 a, Sequence traces from genomic DNA of the patient and her clinically normal parents, showing the heterozygous C→A exchange position, 7315, in the patient and absence of the mutation in both parents. b–e, Demonstration of the expression of two different aberrant FLNA transcripts in fibroblasts. b, Electropherogram derived from sequencing of the RT-PCR products from fibroblast mRNA, showing the presence of a shortened alternative transcript lacking 21 bases from exon 45. The normal sequence of the exons 45 and 46 are indicated above in black and blue, respectively. The position of the point mutation 7315C→A is depicted in red and marked by red arrows. Note that the T peak at position of the mutation is higher than the C representing the wild-type allele. Predominance of the mutant allele reflects the X-inactvation pattern. c–e, Sequences from different clones of the RT-PCR product cloned in E. coli. All three transcripts predicted from the sequencing results in panel b could be detected: 21-bp deletion (c), wild-type allele (d), and point mutation (e). f, Electrophoresis of a 409-bp RT-PCR fragment on a 2.5% agarose gel, showing presence of a shortened fragment in the patient's lymphocytes (lym) and fibroblasts (fib) but not in a normal male control (con). Ø = no template control. The American Journal of Human Genetics 2004 74, 731-737DOI: (10.1086/383094) Copyright © 2004 The American Society of Human Genetics Terms and Conditions

Figure 4 Three-dimensional models of the filamin A rod domain repeat unit 23, generated on the basis of the homologous structures of the 4th (Fucini et al. 1997) and 5th (McCoy et al. 1999) module of the F-Actin Cross-Linking Gelation Factor (Abp-120) by use of Swiss-Model (Guex and Peitsch 1997; Protein Data Bank). a, Ribbon model of a repeat unit showing, in cyan, the regular position of the strand deleted in the shortened protein. Amino- and carboxyterminal ends of the repeat are marked by N- and -C, respectively. b, Model showing the respective position of the leucine residue corresponding to position 2439 depicted in cyan. It resides in a hydrophobic surface cluster. Nonpolar residues are shown in red.

Figure 5 Alignment of the beginning of filamin A repeat 23 and filamin A homologues from various species, as well as the human paralogues filamin B and C (GenBank), showing conservation of the leucine residue at position 2439 (white frames on black background). The conserved amino acids are shown with black background and similar amino acids with a gray background. Numbers above indicate amino acid position in the filamin A protein (GenBank accession number NP_001447).
