Compound Heterozygosity for Late-Onset Cardiomyopathy-Causative ALPK3 Coding Variant and Novel Intronic Variant Cause Infantile Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
JOURNAL OF CARDIOVASCULAR TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH(2023)
摘要
Hypertrophic and dilated cardiomyopathy (HCM, DCM) are leading causes of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in children. The pseudokinase alpha-protein kinase 3 (ALPK3) plays an essential role in sarcomere organization and cardiomyocyte differentiation. ALPK3 coding mutations are causative of recessively inherited pediatric-onset DCM and HCM with variable expression of facial dysmorphism and skeletal abnormalities and implicated in dominantly inherited adult-onset cardiomyopathy. We now report two variants in ALPK3 —a coding variant and a novel intronic variant affecting splicing. We demonstrate that compound heterozygosity for both variants is highly suggestive to be causative of infantile-onset HCM with webbed neck, and heterozygosity for the coding variant presents with adult-onset HCM. Our data validate partial penetrance of heterozygous loss-of-function ALPK3 mutations in late-onset hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and expand the genotypic spectrum of autosomal recessive ALPK3 -related cardiac disease with Noonan-like features.
