CLN5 and fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva: FOP is caused by gain-of-function mutations in the Activin receptor Ia/Activin-like kinase 2 gene (Acvr1/Alk2), with increased receptor sensitivity to bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and a neoceptor response to Activin A. There is extensive literature on the skeletal phenotypes in FOP, but a much more limited understanding of non-skeletal manifestations of this disease.
