Anauxetic dysplasia (AD) is a spondylometaepiphyseal dysplasia with extreme dwarfism. Mutations in the RMRP gene that codes for an RNA subunit of the RNAse MRP complex are the cause of this disease. Recently, mutations in POP1 have been described in a few affected individuals. POP1 is a protein subunit of the MRP RNase complex.
