Sanger sequencing of genomic DNA from the B502 ESC clone identified causative point mutations of both genes.
Recently, whole-exome deep sequencing has accelerated our ability to find the causative point mutations, resulting in the discovery of novel and sometimes unexpected genes.
Six of the 26 deletion-positive patients also had a causative point mutation or frameshift mutation elsewhere in the PTEN gene.
Positional cloning and candidate gene sequencing localized the causative point mutations within the genes coding for natriuretic peptide receptor C (NPR-C) and filamin b (FLNB), respectively.
Until now, >120 causative point mutations have been described, with substitution of valine by methionine at position 30 (Val30Met) being the most frequent (Buxbaum and Tagoe, 2000; Hund et al., 2001; Reilly, 2005).
Since 2013, a genetic test for the Warmblood Fragile Foal Syndrome Type 1 (WFFS), interrogating the causative point mutation in the equine procollagen-lysine, 2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase 1 (PLor1, or lysyl hydroxylase 1) gene, has become available.
