Resumo

Mutations in PUS3 , which encodes a highly conserved enzyme responsible for posttranscriptional modification of tRNA, have been shown in a single family to be a cause of nonsyndromic intellectual disability (ID).1 In this study, we used whole-exome sequencing (WES) to identify biallelic mutations in PUS3 associated with syndromic ID with dysmorphic features, white matter disease (WMD), and renal abnormalities in a nonconsanguineous family from Brazil. The authors thank the patients and their family for participating in this study.
