Dominant‐negative variant in SLC1A4 causes an autosomal dominant epilepsy syndrome
SLC1A4 is a trimeric neutral amino acid transporter essential for shuttling L‐serine from astrocytes into neurons. Individuals with biallelic variants in SLC1A4 are known to have spastic tetraplegia, thin corpus callosum, and progressive microcephaly ...

Fibrillar aggregations of pathogenic pro-vasopressin mutants [PDF]
Diabetes insipidus is a disregulation of water homeostasis characterized by large fluid turnover in the kidney. Water homeostasis is regulated by the hormone vasopressin by increasing reapsorption of water in the renal collecting duct. Autosomal dominant

The Autosomal Dominant Dystonias
Dystonia is a term used to describe a specific set of abnormal movements that can occur as a symptom of a variety of neurologic disorders, but also as a disease entity in its own right. This review focuses on the primary dystonias and delineates the genetic contribution to these disorders.

Degradation of vasopressin precursor and pathogenic mutants in diabetes insipidus [PDF]
The nonapeptide hormone, arginine vasopressin, plays a decisive role in the regulation of fluid balance by reducing free water clearance through reabsorption of water in the renal collecting ducts.

Gamma-D crystallin gene (CRYGD) mutation causes autosomal dominant congenital cerulean cataracts
Congenital cataracts are a major cause of bilateral visual impairment in childhood. We mapped the gene responsible for autosomal congenital cerulean cataracts to chromosome 2q33-35 in a four generation family of Moroccan descent. The maximum lod score (7.

Abstract Dynamin 1 is a GTPase protein involved in synaptic vesicle fission, which facilitates the exocytosis of neurotransmitters necessary for normal signaling. Pathogenic variants in the DNM1 gene are associated with intractable epilepsy, often manifested as infantile spasms at onset, developmental delay, and a movement disorder, and are located in ...
