Abstract
Adams-Oliver syndrome (AOS) is characterized by the association of aplasia cutis congenita with terminal transverse limb defects, often accompanied by additional cardiovascular or neurological features. Both autosomal-dominant and autosomal-recessive disease transmission have been observed, with recent gene discoveries indicating extensive genetic heterogeneity. Mutations of the DOCK6 gene were first described in autosomal-recessive cases of AOS and only five DOCK6-related families have been reported to date. Recently, a second type of autosomal-recessive AOS has been attributed to EOGT mutations in three consanguineous families. Here, we describe the identification of 13 DOCK6 mutations, the majority of which are novel, across 10 unrelated individuals from a large cohort comprising 47 sporadic cases and 31 AOS pedigrees suggestive of autosomal-recessive inheritance. DOCK6 mutations were strongly associated with structural brain abnormalities, ocular anomalies, and intellectual disability, thus suggesting that DOCK6-linked disease represents a variant of AOS with a particularly poor prognosis.

Abstract
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal adult-onset disease in which motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord degenerate by largely unknown mechanisms. ALS is familial (FALS) in 10% of cases, and the inheritance is usually dominant, with variable penetrance. Mutations in copper/zinc super oxide dismutase (SOD1) are found in 20% of familial and 3% of sporadic ALS cases. Five families with ALS and frontotemporal dementia (ALS-FTD) are linked to 9q21, whereas one family with pure ALS is linked to 18q21. We identified two large European families with ALS without SOD1 mutations or linkage to known FALS loci and conducted a genomewide linkage screen using 400 microsatellite markers. In both families, two-point LOD scores >1 and a haplotype segregating with disease were demonstrated only across regions of chromosome 16. Subsequent fine mapping in family 1 gave a maximum two-point LOD score of 3.62 at D16S3137 and a three-point LOD score of 3.85 for markers D16S415 and D16S3137. Haplotype analysis revealed no recombination > approximately 30 cM, (flanking markers at D16S3075 and D16S3112). The maximum two-point LOD score for family 2 was 1.84 at D16S415, and the three-point LOD score was 2.10 for markers D16S419 and D16S415. Definite recombination occurred in several individuals, which narrowed the shared haplotype in affected individuals to a 10.1-cM region (flanking markers: D16S3396 and D16S3112). The region shared by both families on chromosome 16q12 corresponds to approximately 4.5 Mb on the Marshfield map. Bioinformatic analysis of the region has identified 18 known genes and 70 predicted genes in this region, and sequencing of candidate genes has now begun.
