Disease IDSourceNameDescription
618578 OMIMMyopathy, congenital, progressive, with scoliosis (MYOSCO)An autosomal recessive muscular disorder characterized by infantile onset of progressive muscular atrophy, hypotonia, ptosis, scoliosis and dysmorphic facial features. Disease severity is variable, ranging from mild to severe. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
268220 OMIMRhabdomyosarcoma 2 (RMS2)A form of rhabdomyosarcoma, a highly malignant tumor of striated muscle derived from primitive mesenchymal cells and exhibiting differentiation along rhabdomyoblastic lines. Rhabdomyosarcoma is one of the most frequently occurring soft tissue sarcomas and the most common in children. It occurs in four forms: alveolar, pleomorphic, embryonal and botryoidal rhabdomyosarcomas. The gene represented in this entry is involved in disease pathogenesis. A chromosomal aberration involving PAX7 is found in rhabdomyosarcoma. Translocation t(1;13)(p36;q14) with FOXO1. The resulting protein is a transcriptional activator.
