Most disease-causing variants identified to date are putative loss-of-function alleles, although 15-20% of cases are attributed to missense variants. We describe here four patients (including one previously published patient) with de novo KMT2D missense variants and with shared but unusual clinical findings not typically seen in Kabuki syndrome, including athelia (absent nipples), choanal atresia, hypoparathyroidism, delayed or absent pubertal development, and extreme short stature. These individuals also lack the typical dysmorphic facial features found in Kabuki syndrome. Two of the four patients had severe interstitial lung disease. All of these variants cluster within a 40-amino-acid region of the protein that is located just N-terminal of an annotated coiled coil domain. These findings significantly expand the phenotypic spectrum of features associated with variants in KMT2D beyond those seen in Kabuki syndrome and suggest a possible new underlying disease mechanism for these patients. © 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.The investigation of cell cycle stage-dependent processes in a population of cells is often performed using flow cytometry. While this approach is high-throughput, it is relatively low in resolution and unable to measure phenotypic changes or processes occurring in subcellular compartments. We integrated automated microscopy with newly developed informatics workflow that enabled the quantitation of multiple fluorescent markers from specific subnuclear regions throughout a population of cells.
