Abstract:Background
ATRX gene encodes a member of the SWI2/SNF2 family of proteins that may act as a transcriptional factor and plays a significant role in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression. The mutations in the ATRX gene have been shown to cause two types of disorders: inherited mutations lead to alpha thalassemia X-linked mental retardation (ATR-X) syndrome and acquired somatic mutations cause alpha thalassemia myelodysplastic syndrome (ATMDS). Here we report a case of ATRX gene mutation without completel… Show more
