Congenital neutropenia-myelofibrosis-nephromegaly syndrome(SCN5)

MedGen UID:
815361
Concept ID:
C3809031
Disease or Syndrome
Synonym: Severe congenital neutropenia 5, autosomal recessive
Modes of inheritance:
Autosomal recessive inheritance
MedGen UID:
141025
Concept ID:
C0441748
Intellectual Product
Source: Orphanet
A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in individuals with two pathogenic alleles, either homozygotes (two copies of the same mutant allele) or compound heterozygotes (whereby each copy of a gene has a distinct mutant allele).
 
Gene (location): VPS45 (1q21.2)
 
Monarch Initiative: MONDO:0014118

Orphanet: ORPHA369852

Definition

Severe congenital neutropenia-5 is an autosomal recessive primary immunodeficiency disorder characterized primarily by neutropenia and neutrophil dysfunction, a lack of response to G-CSF, life-threatening infections, bone marrow fibrosis, and renal extramedullary hematopoiesis (summary by Vilboux et al., 2013). For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of severe congenital neutropenia, see SCN1 (202700). [from OMIM]
