last update : 14-01-2014
Symbol SAMS
Location 14q32.1
Name Short Stature, Auditory-Canal Atresia, Mandibular Hypoplasia, and Skeletal Abnormalities
Corresponding gene GSC
Main clinical features
  • short stature, auditory canal atresia, mandibular hypoplasia, and skeletal abnormalities
  • bilateral humeral hypoplasia, humeroscapular synostosis, pelvic abnormalities, and proximal defects of the femora
  • Genetic determination autosomal recessive
    Function/system disorder ear
    osteo-articular
    Type disease
    Remark(s)
  • mutation with dysregulation of Goosecoid-mediated gene expression in SAMS causes connective tissues to undergo pathological differentiation and adopt new cartilaginous or osseous fates (PMID: 24290375))
