Abstract
Mutations in ARCN1 give rise to a syndromic disorder with rhizomelic short stature with microretrognathia and developmental delay. ARCN1 encodes the delta subunit of the coat protein I complex, which is required for intracellular trafficking of collagen 1 and which may also be involved in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response. In this paper we describe for the first time the skeletal histological abnormalities in an 18-week-old fetus with an ARCN1 mutation, and we suggest that the skeletal phenotype in ARCN1-related syndrome has more resemblance with ER stress than with a defect in collagen 1 metabolism.
