Newly characterized, suspected pathogenic variant in TRPV4 was analyzed using protein informatics and personalized protein-level molecular studies, genomic exome analysis, and clinical study.
This statement is demonstrated in the family of our proband, a 47-year-old female having the novel c.2401A>G (p.K801E) variant of TRPV4. We discuss the common symptoms between the proband, her father, and her daughter, and compare her phenotype to known TRPV4-associated skeletal dysplasias.
Protein informatics and molecular modeling are used to confirm the pathogenicity of the unique TRPV4 variant found in this family. Multiple data were combined in a comprehensive manner to give complete overall perspective on the patient disease and prognosis.
