A Novel Intronic Variant Causes Aberrant Splicing of PCDH15 in a Family With Usher Syndrome Type 1F
Molecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.Minigene splicing assays elucidated the pathogenicity of a novel intronic c.3717+5G>A mutation in the PCDH15 gene, which was identified in a family affected by Usher syndrome type 1F. The results demonstrated that the c.3717+5G>A mutation can lead to exon 27 skipping and retention of 51 bp at the 5′ end of intron 27, resulting in truncated or abnormal ...

Novel Pathogenic Variant Confirms the Association of REST and Jones Syndrome
Clinical Genetics, Volume 109, Issue 1, Page 199-203, January 2026.Jones syndrome (JS) is an ultra‐rare condition characterized by gingival fibromatosis and progressive sensorineural hearing loss. It has been associated with a pathogenic REST exon‐5 variant (c.2670_2673del) in a Finnish family. We describe the first Italian family with JS in which a novel pathogenic REST exon‐5 variant (c.2645T>G) was identified ...
