  Author(s): Priyanka Vishwakarma*, Ashish Dubey, Deepika Kalo and Vishal Kumar Mishra
  
  3M syndrome is a disorder that origins the skeletal abnormalities including short stature (dwarfism) and unusual facial features. The name of this condition comes from the initials of three researchers who first identified it: Miller, McKusick, and Malvaux. Individuals with 3M syndrome grow extremely slowly before birth, and this slow growth continues throughout childhood and adolescence. They have low birth weight and length and remain much smaller than others in their family, growing to an adult height of approximately 4 feet to 4 feet 6 inches (120 centimeters to 130 centimeters). In this study we are reporting a novel mutation of 3M Syndrome in an Indian subject. We have performed exome sequencing and after identification of likely pathogenic variant we have validated this mutation with Sanger sequencing method. Further research is rational to regulate the classic and the variant .. View More»
