LEMD3 and osteopoikilosis: The genetic testing on DNA extracted from peripheral blood leucocytes confirmed a heterozygous loss of function mutation in the LEM domain-containing protein 3 (LEMD3) gene coding for the inner nuclear membrane protein MAN1, which causes osteopoikilosis by antagonizing transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signalling.
