" /> Microcephaly 5, primary, autosomal recessive - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Microcephaly 5, primary, autosomal recessive;

Symbol : MCPH5;

CISMeF acronym : MCPH5;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Description : Autosomal recessive primary microcephaly-5 (MCPH5) is characterized by decreased occipital-frontal (OFC) circumference, usually less than 3 standard deviations (SD) of the mean, present at birth and associated with mental retardation and speech delay. Other features may include short stature or mild seizures. MCPH5 is associated with a simplification of the cerebral cortical gyral pattern in some cases, which is considered within the phenotypic spectrum of primary microcephaly (review by Woods et al., 2005; Saadi et al., 2009; Passemard et al., 2009). For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of primary microcephaly (MCPH), see MCPH1 (251200).;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the abnormal spindle-like, microcephaly-associated gene (ASPM, 605481.0001);

Prefixed ID : #608716;
