Unique phenotypic–genotypic correlation in Saudi patients with ALMS1 mutations
Abstract Mutations in the ALMS1 gene have been linked to isolated inherited retinal dystrophy or Alström syndrome. This report illustrates the unique pattern of ALMS1-associated diseases in a set of three simplex Saudi patients originating from unrelated consanguineous families.

Inactivating mutations in the ALMS1 gene in humans cause early onset obesity and metabolic syndrome. Deletion of ALMS1 in rodents induces early onset obesity and insulin resistance on normal chow. The mechanisms by which ALMS1 cause obesity are not clear but likely involve the development

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common heart disease in cats with a suspected genetic origin. Previous studies have identified five HCM-associated variants in three genes (Myosin binding protein C3: MYBPC3 p.A31P, p.A74T, p.R820W; Myosin ...
