BMPR1B gene in brachydactyly type 2-A family with de novo R486W mutation and a disease phenotype.

In this paper, we report a case of BDA2 resulting from the presence of a heterozygous c.1456C>T, p.Arg486Trp variant in BMPR1B, which was previously associated with BDA2. The next generation sequencing analysis of the patients' family revealed that the mutation occurred de novo in the proband and was transmitted to his 26-month-old son. Although the same variant was confirmed in both patients, their phenotypes were different with more severe manifestation of the disease in the adult.
