CHCHD10 Mitigates Alzheimer's Disease‐Related Phenotypes in Association With Epigenetic Remodeling in Directly Reprogrammed Neurons

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CHCHD10 loss in Alzheimer's disease is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction, epigenomic disruption, and tau pathology. Restoration of CHCHD10 shifts DNA methylation toward a non‐disease state and reduces tau and amyloid pathology, with KATNAL2 acting as a downstream effector.

Integrative Omics Analysis Reveals the Regulation of Hypoxia Tolerance in Large Yellow Croaker (Larimichthys crocea) via the Lipoic Acid Synthase (lias) Gene

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Lipoic acid synthase (lias) can regulate α‐KG levels through lipoylation, thereby negatively regulating HIF‐1α protein levels via PHD under hypoixa. The Hap2 allele of lias exhibits lower expression levels than Hap1, leading to the accumulation of more HIF‐1α protein and thereby enhancing hypoxia tolerance. ABSTRACT Hypoxia stress seriously affects the

Identification of splice defects due to noncanonical splice site or deep‐intronic variants in ABCA4 [PDF]

Human Mutation, 2019
Pathogenic variants in the ATP-binding cassette transporter A4 (ABCA4) gene cause a continuum of retinal disease phenotypes, including Stargardt disease. Noncanonical splice site (NCSS) and deep-intronic variants constitute a large fraction of disease-causing alleles, defining the functional consequences of which remains a challenge.

Whole‐Genome Sequencing Pilot of the Central Asian Genomic Diversity Project Reveals Distinct Histories, Adaptation, and Introgression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
As a pilot phase of the Central Asian Genomic Diversity Project, whole‐genome sequencing of 166 individuals from 20 Central Asian and Afghan Hazara populations reveals fine‐scale substructure shaped by repeated trans‐Eurasian migration and admixture. Integrated analyses uncover post‐admixture adaptation, archaic introgression, and medically relevant ...

Deep intronic TIMMDC1 variant delays diagnosis of rapidly progressive complex I deficiency

European Journal of Medical Genetics, 2021
Complex I deficiency is the most common pediatric mitochondrial disease. It can cause a wide range of clinical disorders, including Leigh syndrome. TIMMDC1 encodes an assembly protein of complex I and has been recently associated with early onset mitochondrial disease in three unrelated families.

Transposable Element–Driven PIEZO Mutation Enhances Locust Flight in Plateau Hypoxia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Why transposable elements (TEs) persisted or expanded in genomes remains a mystery. Using integrated analysis of TE macro‐ and microevolution in locusts, our results showed that thousands of TE insertions promoted widespread adaptive variation. Subfamilies of candidate adaptive TEs amplified and reshaped species‐level genomic architecture.

Stepwise genetic testing strategy identified pathogenic variants in 10 Chinese duchenne muscular dystrophy patients

Frontiers in Genetics
BackgroundDuchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) results from pathogenic variants in the DMD gene. Despite routine screening using Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification (MLPA) and Whole-Exome Sequencing (WES), a subset of cases remains molecularly ...

Identification and Targeted Correction of a Pathogenic PMP22 Deep Intronic Variant

International Journal of Molecular Sciences
Pathogenic variants in the PMP22 gene can lead to hereditary peripheral demyelinating neuropathies of varying severity, including hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies (HNPP), Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease types 1A and 1E (CMT1A, CMT1E), Roussy–Lévy syndrome, and Dejerine–Sottas disease (DSS). This study describes a novel deep intronic

UCtracker: A Deep Learning–Based DNA Methylation Model for Noninvasive Diagnosis and Recurrence Surveillance of Urothelial Carcinoma in a Prospective Study

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We developed UCtracker, a urine DNA methylation–based deep learning model, for noninvasive diagnosis and postoperative surveillance of urothelial carcinoma. UCtracker demonstrates high diagnostic accuracy, robustness at ultralow sequencing depth, early recurrence detection, and dynamic risk‐stratified monitoring of molecular residual disease ...

Deep clinicopathological phenotyping identifies a previously unrecognized pathogenic EMD splice variant

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2021
Exome sequencing (ES) has revolutionized rare disease management, yet only ~25%–30% of patients receive a molecular diagnosis. A limiting factor is the quality of available phenotypic data.
