CaseAddInfo: Parents are first-cousin consanguineous, Max LOD score is 2.1 for family
CasePreviousTesting: Defects in the intestinal absorption of monoamino-monocarboxylic acids determined by oral loading; Urine analyses confirmed the absence of hyperaminoaciduria in the mother (III-4), father (III-5) and the younger brother (IV-3), Brother of proband
CaseGenotypingMethod: DNA was isolated from peripheral blood samples and from liver samples collected at autopsy. A genome-wide screen with 343 different markers was carried out and linkage analysis performed using homozygosity mapping. Both SLC6A18 and SLC6A19 were investigated for possible pathogenicity, with SLC6A19's pattern of expression supporting it as a primary candidate. Intronic primers were used to bidirectionally sequence each exon and flanking intronic regions, locating a homozygous frameshift mutation that perfectly segregated with the phenotype.
