Identification of Two Variants c.2697A > C and c.3305A > C in USP7 by Analysis of Whole-Exome Sequencing in Chinese Patients with Hao-Fountain Syndrome

Background Variants of ubiquitin-specific protease 7 (USP7) gene in humans are associated with a neurodevelopmental disorder—Hao-Fountain syndrome, its core symptoms including developmental delay, intellectual disability, and speech delay. Other variable symptoms can affect multiple systems. In present study, we report two patients with core features from two unrelated consanguineous families originating from the Tianjin Children's Hospital.
