A 58-year-old woman with debilitating ankylosing spondylitis who was born to consanguineous parents was found to have an apparent severe vitamin D deficiency that did not respond to supplementation. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry showed the absence of circulating vitamin D-binding protein, and chromosomal microarray confirmed a homozygous deletion of the group-specific component ( GC ) gene that encodes the protein. Congenital absence of vitamin D-binding protein resulted in normocalcemia and a relatively mild disruption of bone metabolism, in this case complicated by severe autoimmune disease. (Funded by the National Institutes of Health and the University of Washington.).
