Barth Syndrome is a severe inherited disorder, often fatal in childhood, characterized by cardiac and skeletal myopathy, short stature and neutropenia. The disease has been mapped to a very gene-rich region in distal portion of Xq28. We now report the identification of unique mutations in one of the genes in this region, termed , expressed at high level in cardiac and skeletal muscle. Different mRNAs can be produced by alternative splicing of the primary

Extractions: Subscribe SHL scientist Andy Neuwald uses neither cells, nor beakers, nor pipettes, nor Petri dishes, let alone patients in his research. So how has he recently cracked one area of medical research wide open? With a computer program he wrote called PROBE. "I'm quite happy about it. It was kind of like lightning striking, but in a way that I hope to repeat!" says Andy, referring to how PROBE revealed the probable cause of Barth syndrome, a heritable genetic disease that is often fatal in childhood. Ansy is one of several "bioinformatics" researchers at CSHL. Rather than pipetting their way toward greater understanding of how cells work, Andy and his colleagues program computers to analyze biological data in the digital realm. Consider the following twenty-letter DNA sequence: TCAAAGTGTACTTACCTCGC. No human being can look at that sequence and tell what it means. But plug it into a suitable bioinformatics computer program and watch what happens: It is sent into cyberspace and compared with millions of other sequences in existing databases. In a few seconds, a message returns indicating that this twenty-letter sequence is part of a chicken gene that encodes the protein ovalbumin, better known as egg white.

Abstract: Barth syndrome involves cardiomyopathy, skeletal myopathy, neutropenia and 3-methylglutaconic (3-mgc) aciduria. 3-mgc aciduria has been observed in almost all reported cases and has served as a diagnostic criterion. Conclusion: A case of confirmed BTHS, but without 3-mgc aciduria, emphasizes the importance of extensive investigations in cases with suspected hereditary cardiomyopathy.

Extractions: Early diagnosis is the key to the survival of people who have Barth syndrome. Those who are not accurately diagnosed have only a 30% chance of living past the first few years of their life. With proper diagnosis at an early age, children have an 85% - 90% chance of survival. This is why awareness of Barth syndrome is so important. At times, we find it hard to think of William with a future. After all, when he was first diagnosed, no boys had ever grown up with Barth Syndrome. He has faced his difficulties with such determination that he is an inspiration to all. Every step along the way has been a milestone and we face each one as it comes.
