摘要

Basal cell nevus syndrome (also known as Gorlin Syndrome; MIM109400) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by recurrent pathological features such as basal cell carcinomas and odontogenic keratocysts as well as skeletal abnormalities. Most affected individuals have point mutations or small insertions or deletions within the PTCH1 gene on human chromosome 9, but there are some cases with more extensive deletion of the region, usually including the neighboring FANCC and/or ERCC6L2 genes. We report a 16-year-old patient with a deletion of approximately 400,000 bases which removes only PTCH1 and some non-coding RNA genes but leaves FANCC and ERCC6L2 intact. In spite of the small amount of DNA for which he is haploid, his phenotype is more extreme than many individuals with longer deletions in the region. This includes early presentation with a large number of basal cell nevi and other skin lesions, multiple jaw keratocysts, and macrosomia. We found that the deletion was in the paternal chromosome, in common with other macrosomia cases. Using public databases, we have examined possible interactions between sequences within and outside the deletion and speculate that a regulatory relationship exists with flanking genes, which is unbalanced by the deletion, resulting in abnormal activation or repression of the target genes and hence the severity of the phenotype.
