Abstract

A. The family pedigree. B. Whole exome sequencing of the proband-parent trio revealed c.611_612dupTG(p.M205*) variant of FITM2 gene as suspicious variant. C. Sanger sequencing confirmed that c.611_612dupTG(p.M205*) variant of FITM2 gene was homozygous in the proband, while the unaffected parents were heterozygous.
