“…The cohesin complex is not only involved in sister chromatids cohesion, but it also exhibits novel biological functions, such as the regulation of gene transcription [7][8][9], thus extending the range of pathomechanisms relevant for cohesinopathies and potentially explaining the variability in the clinical manifestations of CdLS [10][11][12][13]. Furthermore, other chromatin dysregulation disorders [14], cohesinopathies [15] and/or transcriptomopathies [16] present overlapping phenotypes with CdLS, such as CHOPS syndrome (OMIM #616368), KBG syndrome (OMIM #148050), Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RSTS, OMIM #180849, #613684), Wiedemann-Steiner syndrome (WDSTS, OMIM #605130), Coffin-Siris syndrome (CSS, OMIM #135900) and Nicolaides-Baraitser syndrome (NCBRS, OMIM #601358).…”
