Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We conducted next generation sequencing-based comprehensive screening of nucleotide-level mutations and array comparative genomic hybridization-based screening of genomic rearrangements for 218 samples obtained from patients with delayed puberty and 48 samples obtained from patients with precocious puberty,. As a result, we found (i) a novel inactivating SOX10 mutation in a patient with Kallmann syndrome accompanied by deafness and iris hypopigmentation; (ii) complex X chromosome rearrangements in two patients with ovarian dysfunction, and (iii) the first activating PROKR2 mutation in a patient with precocious puberty.
