TOP 20/40 1999
Short rib polydactyly
 A group of skeletal dysplasias characterized by short
ribs, short limbs, polydactyly and visceral abnormalities
 Lethal in the newborn period
 Four types (I-IV), genes not known
 Presumed AR inheritance
 Diagnosed on ultrasound scan
Family referred to Peninsula Clinical

Born 1996
TOP15-20 weeks’ gestation between 1999 and 2003
Aim
 To identify the causative gene mutation(s) in
the affected foetuses
Methods
 DNA extracted from paraffin-embedded fixed tissue
stored from the 5 affected foetuses, their unaffected sibling
and both parents
 Genome wide linkage analysis (Illumina Golden Gate
n=6008 SNPs)
 Fine mapping using microsatellite markers
 Sequence analysis of candidate gene
Results:Genome wide SNP scan
 Genotype call rate 98.9% for FFPE DNA vs 99.7% for
lymphocyte DNA
 No homozygous regions exceeding 3cM
 Perl script written to identify informative markers where
affected offspring share a genotype but the unaffected child
does not
Results:Genome wide SNP scan
Results:Genome wide SNP scan
Regions where genotypes were shared by the affected offspring but not the unaffected child.

Chromosome 11
Results:DYNC2H1 candidate gene
 DYNC2H1 encodes a dynein motor protein required for
generation and maintenance of cilia
 Jeune asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy is a skeletal
dysplasia caused by mutations in the IFT80 gene that
encodes a protein involved in intraflagellar transport of
primary cilia (Beales et al 2007 Nature Genetics)
Where next?
 Sequence best functional candidate
(DYNC2H1, 90 exons) or
 Array capture of 6Mb region for next
generation sequencing
Results:Sequence analysis

Conclusions
 DYNC2H1 mutations confirmed in a 9th family with short rib
polydactyly type III
 First example of linkage mapping to identify compound
heterozygous mutations in an outbred family affected with a
recessive disorder
 Ten years from referral to report; how long using next
generation sequencing technology?
