MeSH Heading: Cockayne Syndrome
Tree Number(s): C05.116.099.343.250; C10.574.500.362; C16.131.077.250; C16.320.240.562; C16.320.400.200; C18.452.284.250
Unique ID: D003057
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D003057
Scope Note: A syndrome characterized by multiple system abnormalities including DWARFISM; PHOTOSENSITIVITY DISORDERS; PREMATURE AGING; and HEARING LOSS. It is caused by mutations of a number of autosomal recessive genes encoding proteins that involve transcriptional-coupled DNA REPAIR processes. Cockayne syndrome is classified by the severity and age of onset. Type I (classical; CSA) is early childhood onset in the second year of life; type II (congenital; CSB) is early onset at birth with severe symptoms; type III (xeroderma pigmentosum; XP) is late childhood onset with mild symptoms.
