Zusammenfassung:OBJECTIVE: To explore HEPACAM mutations in a Chinese family with megalencephalic leukoencephaloptathy with subcortical cysts (MLC)
METHOD: Genomic DNA samples were extracted from peripheral blood of the proband and her parents. All exons and exon-intron boundaries of HEPACAM and MLC1 were amplified in the MLC family by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by direct DNA sequencing
RESULT: Two heterozygous mutations of HEPACAM located in exon 2, c.203A > T(p.K68M) and c.395C > A(p.T132N), were identified in the proband. The proband's mother had the heterozygous mutations c.203A > T(p.K68M), and her father had the heterozygous mutation-c.395C > A(p.T132N). There was no variation found in MLC1 gene
CONCLUSION: The proband was heterozygous compound MLC patient carrying on one allele with the c.203A > T(p.K68M) mutation inherited from her mother, and the other allele with the c.395C > A(p.T132N) mutation inherited from her father. The parents both are heterozygous carriers with normal phenotype. The disease-causing gene for this family was resulted in HEPACAM mutation other than MLC1 mutation
