IEMbase phenotype signal

IEMbase represents autosomal recessive CHSY1-related chondroitin sulfate synthase 1 deficiency, also listed as CHSY1-CDG and Tentamy preaxial brachydactyly syndrome. The source spelling "Tentamy" appears to be a source label variant for Temtamy.

Clinical rows include abducted thumbs, clinodactyly, hyperphalangism, medial deviation of fingers and toes, preaxial brachydactyly, symphalangism, syndactyly, sensorineural deafness, delta-shaped phalanges, developmental delay, kyphoscoliosis, optic atrophy, pectus excavatum, radioulnar synostosis, tarsal-carpal fusions, and cerebellar vermis agenesis/hypoplasia. There are no biochemical or treatment rows.

DisMech phenotype coverage

The generated mapping to Temtamy_Preaxial_Brachydactyly_Syndrome.yaml is correct. Local DisMech models biallelic CHSY1 loss of function, impaired chondroitin sulfate biosynthesis, excess JAG1/NOTCH signaling, BMP and inner-ear patterning effects, and the preaxial brachydactyly, hyperphalangism, symphalangism, carpal/tarsal fusion, radioulnar synostosis, hearing loss, short stature, and developmental-delay phenotype cluster.

Local DisMech is stronger for mechanism and for the distinction between CHSY1-related Temtamy preaxial brachydactyly syndrome and C12orf57-related Temtamy syndrome.

Concordance and completeness

Judgement: correct mapping with high concordance.

The resources agree on CHSY1 identity, autosomal recessive inheritance, preaxial brachydactyly, hyperphalangism, symphalangism, carpal/tarsal and radioulnar fusion findings, hearing loss, and developmental involvement. IEMbase adds a CDG framing and several granular skeletal/ocular/brain prompts.

Curation actions

  • Keep the generated mapping to Temtamy_Preaxial_Brachydactyly_Syndrome.yaml.
  • Treat "Tentamy" as source metadata/spelling, not as a new disease label.
  • Consider future enrichment with abducted thumbs, clinodactyly, medial deviations, kyphoscoliosis, optic atrophy, pectus excavatum, cerebellar vermis agenesis/hypoplasia, and tarsal-carpal fusions after source verification.
