Molecular Landscape in Limb Anomalies: Diagnostic Yield and New Candidate Genes
In 132 individuals with limb anomalies, diagnostic yield was 36% (47/132), including 25 novel variants, three cases with new phenotypes, and two candidate loci, HOXA11 and a small 2q31.1 deletion. Mouse data and exome‐wide analysis, key in identifying the candidate loci, represent an important opportunity for gene discovery.

Partial Atrioventricular Septal Defect in a Case of Bardet-Biedl Syndrome: A Rare Association
Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) (MIM 209900) is a genetic disorder with a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations including retinal dystrophy, hypogenitalism, polydactyly, obesity, renal abnormalities and mental retardation. We describe a 13-year-old girl,

Growth hormone (GH) activates GHR at the primary cilium and stimulates centrosomal JAK2. JAK2 centrosomal localization requires both its SH2 domain and kinase activity. Cells expressing JAK2 variants deficient in centrosomal targeting show impaired control of cilia length, reduced proliferation, and cell migration compared with parental and JAK2 WT ...

A rare case of Bardet–Biedl syndrome
We report here a rare case of Bardet–Biedl syndrome (BBS). A 7-year-old boy was diagnosed to have BBS based on the clinical features: retinitis pigmentosa sine pigmento, obesity, postaxial polydactyly, syndactyly, and hypogenitalism.

Sixth Cardinal Feature of Bardet-Biedl Syndrome in a Child: Cystic Kidney Disease - Case Report
The cardinal manifestations of Bardet–Biedl Syndrome are described to include retinal dystrophy, obesity, polydactyly or dysmorphic extremities, mental retardation, and hypogonadism which especially affects boys. Renal involvement has been described as a
