We have studied the expression of wild-type- and GTP-binding mutants (G144V and S148N) of the SEPT9_v4 isoform in the MCF7 cell line as a model for its deregulation in neoplasia.
Since SEPT9 is thought to function through interaction with other septins and small GTPase Rho-mediated signaling, we analyzed the properties of HNA-associated SEPT9 missense variants, SEPT9F (c.278C>T/p.Ser93Phe in SEPT9_v3; NM_006640.3) and SEPT9W (c.262C>T/p.Arg88Trp in SEPT9_v3).

After confirming a heterozygous SEPT9 mutation (R88W) in the father and his mother, it became apparent that the dysmorphic features in the children were part of HNA and that previous complaints of the daughter, erroneously diagnosed as pronatio dolorosa and then epiphysiolysis of the capitellum humeri, were in fact a first neuralgic pain attack.
