    Abstract Background: PRDM12 polyalanine tract expansions cause two different disorders; Midfacial Toddler Excoriation Syndrome (MiTES) - itch with normal pain sensation associated with homozygous 18 alanines (18A), and congenital insensitivity to pain (CIP) with normal itch with homozygous 19A. Knowledge of the phenotype, genotype, and disease mechanism of MiTES is incomplete. Why PRDM12 18A versus 19A can cause almost opposite phenotypes is unknown; no other poly-alanine or poly-glutamine tract expansion disease causes two such disparate phenotypes.
    Methods: We assessed the genotype and phenotype of 9 new, 9 atypical, and 6 previously reported patients diagnosed with MiTES. Using cell lines with homozygous PRDM12 of 12A (normal), 18A (MiTES) and 19A (CIP) we examined PRDM12 aggregation and subcellular localisation by image separation confocal microscopy and sub-cellular fractionation western blotting.
    Results: MiTES presents in the first year of life, and in all cases the condition regresses over the first decade leaving scarring. The MiTES phenotype is highly distinctive. Features overlapping with PRDM12-CIP are rarely found. The genotype-phenotype study of PRDM12 polyalanine tract shows that 7A -15A are normal; 16A -18A are associated with MiTES; 19A leads to CIP; and no clinically atypical MiTES cases had an expansion. PRDM12 aggregation and sub-cellular localisation differ significantly between 18A and normal 12A cell lines and between 18A and 19A cell lines. MiTES is a new protein aggregation disease.
    Conclusion: We provide diagnostic criteria for MiTES, and improved longitudinal data. MiTES and CIP are distinct phenotypes despite their genotypes varying by a single alanine in the PRDM12 polyalanine tract. We found clear distinctions between the cellular phenotypes of normal, MiTES and CIP cells.. We hypothesise that the developmental environment of the trigeminal ganglion is unique and critically sensitive to prenatal and postnatal levels of PRDM12.

    Abstract Background: Significant human diseases/phenotypes exist which require both an environmental trigger event and a genetic predisposition before the disease/phenotype emerges, e.g. Carbamazepine with the rare SNP allele of rs3909184 causing Stevens Johnson syndrome, and aminoglycosides with rs267606617 causing sensory neural deafness. The underlying genotypes are fully penetrant only when the correct environmental trigger(s) occur, otherwise they are silent and harmless. Such diseases/phenotypes will not appear to have a Mendelian inheritance pattern, unless the environmental trigger is very common (>50% per lifetime). The known causative genotypes are likely to be protein-altering SNPs with dominant/semi-dominant effect. We questioned whether other diseases and phenotypes could have a similar aetiology.
    Methods: We wrote the fSNPd program to analyse multiple exomes from a test cohort simultaneously with the purpose of identifying SNP alleles at a significantly different frequency to that of the general population. fSNPd was tested on trial cohorts, iteratively improved, and modelled for performance against an idealised association study under mutliple parameters. We also assessed the seqeuncing depath of all human exons to determine which were sufficiently well sequenced in an exome to be sued by fSNPd - by assessing forty exomes base by base.
    Results: We describe a simple methodology for the detection of SNPs capable of causing a phenotype triggered by an environmental event. This uses cohorts of relatively small size (30-100 individuals) with the phenotype being investigated, their exomes, and thence seeks SNP allele frequencies significantly different from expected to identify potentially clinically important, protein altering SNP alleles. The strengths and weaknesses of this approach for discovering significant genetic causes of human disease are comparable to Mendelian disease mutation detection and Association Studies.
    Conclusions: The fSNPd methodology is another approach, and has potentially significant advantage over Association studies in needing far fewer individuals, to detect genes involved in the pathogenesis of a diseases/phenotypes. Furthermore, the SNP alleles identified alter amino acids, potentially making it easier to devise functional assays of protein function to determine pathogenicity.
