Q. The above image finding is associated with all the following
genes except
a.LIS1 mutations.
b.DCX (doublecortin) mutations.
c. PROKR2
d.ARX mutations.
e.RELN mutations
ANS .---c
PROKR2 gene is associated with
Kallman syndrome.
Kallmann syndrome may be of
X-linked, autosomal dominant, or autosomal recessive inheritance . It can be
divided by genotype into four different types: KAL1 (X-linked) and the autosomal
types KAL2, KAL3, and KAL4.
VLDLR mutations is associated
with the lissencephaly band heterotopia spectrum.
LIS1 mutations may result in the
phenotypes of the Miller-Dieker syndrome, isolated lissencephaly sequence
(ILS), or subcortical band heterotopia (SBH)
The DCX gene, or XLIS located on
Xq22.3-q23, encodes a protein named doublecortin, which, similar to LIS1,
depending on the type of mutation, may result in the phenotype of ILS, SBH or
central pachygyria
