A novel heterozygous variant in the COL10A1 gene was identified in a 2-year-old Chinese boy with pathogenic predicted effects on protein structure. Genotype-phenotype correlation analysis indicated that variants in the NC1 domain were associated with earlier onset and more severe symptoms in SMCD patients.
Background: Schmid-type metaphyseal chondrodysplasia (SMCD) is a rare autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasia caused by heterozygous mutations in COL10A1, the gene which encodes collagen type X alpha 1 chain. However, its genotype-phenotype relationship has not been fully determined. Subjects and Methods The proband is a 2-year-old boy, born of non-consanguineous Chinese parents. We conducted a systematic analysis of the clinical and radiological characteristics and a follow-up study of the proband. Whole-exome sequencing was applied for the genetic analysis, together with bioinformatic analysis of predicted consequences of the identified variant. A homotrimer model was built to visualize the affected region and predict possible outcomes of this variant. Furthermore, a literature review and genotype-phenotype analysis were performed by online searching all cases with SMCD. Results: A novel heterozygous variant (NM_040493.4: c.1863_1866delAATG, NP_000484.2: p.(Met622 Thrfs*54)) was identified in COL10A1 gene in the affected child. And it was predicted to be pathogenic by in silico analysis. Protein modeling revealed that the variant was located in the NCI domain, which was predicted to produce truncated collagen and impair the trimerization of collagen type X alpha 1 chain and combination with molecules in the matrix. Moreover, genotype-phenotype correlation analysis demonstrated that patients with truncating variants or variants in NC1 domain often presented earlier onset and severer symptoms compared with those with non-truncating or variants in non-NC1 domains. Conclusion: The NC1 domain of COL10A1 was proved to be the hotspot region underlying SMCD, patients with variants in NC1 domain were more likely to present severer manifestations at an earlier age.
