A spontaneous autosomal recessive lethal mutation, black larva (bl), producing black pigmented larvae that die during the 4th larval instar has been discovered in the mosquito Anopheles albimanus Wiedemann. Genetic investigations using two Y-autosome translocations and a 3rd chromosome dominant marker, St, indicate that bl is located on chromosome 3 at a distance of 15 map units from St.

Autosomal recessive Chanarin-Dorfman syndrome (CDS, MIM #275630) is defined as a neutral lipid storage disease with ichthyosis (NLSDI) due to an accumulation of lipid droplets in a variety of different tissues including liver and muscle cells, leucocytes, fibroblasts and nerve cells It is caused by biallelic mutations in the abhydrolase domain containing 5 gene (ABHD5, MIM *604780) which is localized on the short arm of chromosome 3. Here we report an 18 month-old girl in whom we have identified the homozygous ABHD5 mutation c.700C > T, p.(Arg234*). Since none of the parents carried this point mutation, parentage was confirmed by microsatellite marker analysis. Suspected uniparental disomy (UPD) was confirmed by microsatellite genotyping over the entire chromosome 3 and indicated a maternal origin. UPD is an extremely rare event that is not necessarily pathogenic, but may cause disease if the affected chromosome contains genes that are imprinted. Here we report the first case of Chanarin-Dorfman syndrome due to a de novo ABHD5 mutation in the maternal germ cell, combined with a maternal uniparental isodisomy of chromosome 3. This case demonstrates that genetic analysis of the patient and both parents is crucial to provide correct genetic counseling.

AbstractJoubert syndrome (JS) is a rare congenital, autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a distinctive brain malformation, developmental delay, ocular motor apraxia, breathing abnormalities, and high clinical and genetic heterogeneity. We are reporting three siblings with JS from consanguineous parents in Syria. Two of them had the same homozygous c.2172delA (p.Trp725Glyfs*) AHI1 mutation and the third was diagnosed prenatally with magnetic resonance imaging. This pathogenic variant is very rare and described in only a few cases in the literature. Multinational collaboration could be of benefit for the patients from undeveloped, low-income countries that have a low-quality health care system, especially for the diagnosis of rare diseases.
