Abstract
Seven patients with similar phenotypes of developmental delay and microcephaly were found by whole-exome sequencing to have de novo loss-of-function mutations in POGZ. POGZ is a pogo transposable element-derived protein with a zinc finger cluster. The protein is involved in normal kinetochore assembly and mitotic sister chromatid cohesion and mitotic chromosome segregation. POGZ deficiency may affect mitosis, disrupting brain development and function.
