Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA) is a rare congenital hypoplastic
anemia that usually presents early in infancy and is inherited in 10%
to 20% of cases. Linkage analysis has shown that DBA in many of both
dominant and recessive DBA families mapped to chromosome 19q13.2
leading to the cloning of a gene on chromosome 19q13.2 that encodes a
ribosomal protein, RPS19. However, subsequently, mutations of the
RPS19 gene have only been identified in 25% of all
patients with DBA. This study analyzed 14 multiplex DBA families, 9 of
which had 19q13.2 haplotypes inconsistent with 19q linkage. A
genome-wide search for linked loci suggested the presence of a second
DBA locus in a 26.4-centimorgan (cM) interval on human chromosome 8p.
Subsequently, 24 additional DBA families were ascertained and all 38 families were analyzed with additional polymorphic markers on
chromosome 8p. In total, 18 of 38 families were consistent with linkage
to chromosome 8p with a maximal LOD score with heterogeneity of 3.55 at
D8S277 assuming 90% penetrance. The results indicate the existence of
a second DBA gene in the 26.4-cM telomeric region of human
chromosome 8p23.3-p22, most likely within an 8.1-cM interval flanked by
D8S518 and D8S1825. Seven families were inconsistent with linkage to 8p
or 19q and did not reveal mutations in the RPS19 gene,
suggesting further genetic heterogeneity.
