Rare Mutations in AHDC1 in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea.

One rare missense mutation (AHDC1: p.G1484D) and two mutations (c.-88C>T; c.-781C>G) in 5'-untranslated region (UTR) of AHDC1 were identified. The rare mutation (c.-781C>G) in 5'-UTR that was identified in several patients presenting more severe clinical manifestations affects expression of AHDC1. Conclusions. Our results revealed three rare mutations of AHDC1 in patients with OSA in Chinese Hanindividuals.
