Noonan syndrome is the second most common syndromic cause of congenital heart disease. 50-70% of individuals with NS are born with some form of congenital heart defect, with pulmonary valvular stenosis being the most common (50–60%). [9]
Jacqueline Anne Noonan (October 28, 1928 – July 23, 2020) was an American pediatric cardiologist best known for her characterization of a genetic disorder now called Noonan syndrome. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] She was also the original describer of hypoplastic left heart syndrome .
The following is a list of genetic disorders and if known, type of mutation and for the chromosome involved. Although the parlance "disease-causing gene" is common, it is the occurrence of an abnormality in the parents that causes the impairment to develop within the child. There are over 6,000 known genetic disorders in humans.
Tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 11 (PTPN11) also known as protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1D (PTP-1D), Src homology region 2 domain-containing phosphatase-2 (SHP-2), or protein-tyrosine phosphatase 2C (PTP-2C) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PTPN11 gene.
Noonan syndrome with multiple lentigines (NSML) which is part of a group called Ras/MAPK pathway syndromes, [2] is a rare autosomal dominant, [3] multisystem disease caused by a mutation in the protein tyrosine phosphatase, non-receptor type 11 gene . The disease is a complex of features, mostly involving the skin, skeletal and cardiovascular ...
Medical genetics A webbed neck , or pterygium colli , is a congenital skin fold that runs along the sides of the neck down to the shoulders . There are many variants.
Myotonic dystrophy (DM) is a genetic condition that is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, meaning each child of an affected individual has a 50% chance of inheriting the disease. The mutation involves satellite DNA , which is tandemly repeated sequences of DNA that do not code for a protein.
Short rib–polydactyly syndrome is a family of four closely related dysplasias: I – "Saldino-Noonan type" II – "Majewski type" III – "Verma-Naumoff type" (associated with DYNC2H1) [1] IV – "Beemer-Langer type"
