Six novel mutations (p.154_158del, p.E496Rfs*12, p.W190X, p.S134D, p.W10X, and c.1552 + 3insT) in FGFR1, two novel mutations (p.E176K and p.R184C) in FGF8, three novel mutations (p.48_52del, p.P120L, and p.K191R) in FGF17, and five reported mutations (p.W289X, p.G237S, p.V102I, p.R250Q, and p.T340M) in FGFR1 were identified in 18 IHH patients.
Here, exome sequencing analysis in a 12-year-old boy with HS disclosed a novel de novo heterozygous variant c.1934C>T in FGFR1 predicted to cause the p.(Ala645Val) amino-acid substitution.
In DNA from biopsies, mosaicism for pathogenic variants, including KRAS p.Ala146Thr in two OES subjects, FGFR1 p.Asn546Lys and KRAS p.Ala146Val in ECCL patients, and KRAS p.Gly12Asp in both SFMS patients, was demonstrated.

Therefore, we confirm that FGFR1 N546K is a plausible causative mutation of ECCL patients and could be associated with a risk of brain tumor development.

Targeted sequencing of tissue from the right gluteal mass, revealed a mosaic activating FGFR1 c.1966A>G (p.Lys656Glu) mutation, absent in normal left gluteal tissue, confirming the diagnosis of encephalocraniocutaneous lipomatosis (ECCL), belonging to the family of RASopathies (including neurofibromatosis type I, Noonan syndrome, Costello syndrome), with constitutive activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, and an increased risk of developing neoplasms.

Furthermore, in tandem SH2 and γSA constructs, molecular dynamics and NMR results show that the Arg687Trp mutant in PLCγ1 (equivalent to the cancer mutation Arg665Trp in PLCγ2) perturbs the dynamic allosteric pathway.
