Transcriptome sequencing identifies a noncoding, deep intronic variant in CLCN7 causing autosomal recessive osteopetrosis

Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2020
Background Over half of children with rare genetic diseases remain undiagnosed despite maximal clinical evaluation and DNA‐based genetic testing. As part of an Undiagnosed Diseases Program applying transcriptome (RNA) sequencing to identify the causes of

Characterization and Analysis of PHEX Variants in Patients With Hypophosphatemia in Argentina

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Confirming the underlying molecular etiology of hereditary hypophosphatemia (HH) to provide recurrence risk counseling is highly important. Our aims were to describe the detected variants and their distribution across Argentina and to contrast them with published data.

Female‐Specific Risk of TAS2R Variants in Chronic Rhinosinusitis: A Hospital‐Based Cohort Study From the Taiwan Precision Medicine Initiative

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Bitter taste receptors (T2Rs) function in the innate immune defense of the sinonasal mucosa; however, the genetic association between the TAS2R gene family and chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) remains understudied in Asian populations.

Monoallelic POLR3A Variants Cause Early‐Onset Peripheral Neuropathy

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Biallelic variants in genes encoding the RNA polymerase III complex (Pol III) cause a spectrum of neurological disorders primarily affecting the central nervous system. Monoallelic variants have been reported in the POLR3B subunit only, associated with neurodevelopmental disorder, epilepsy, and peripheral neuropathy.

Fun‐sized library prep: Miniaturization is a valid method for per‐sample cost reduction in targeted sequencing of angiosperm DNA

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Genomic analysis of population structure is important for understanding plant genetic diversity among and within populations. A limitation to the broader application of genetics in conservation and related fields is the cost of obtaining large datasets.

Integration of deep intronic and RNA sequencing enhances molecular diagnosis in genetically unsolved Pompe cases

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports
We describe a diagnostic workflow integrating deep intronic and RNA sequencing to resolve genetically unsolved Pompe cases. A five-year-old girl with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, muscle weakness, recurrent respiratory tract infections, elevated CK levels,

The Role of miRNAs in Chicken Immune Regulation and Prospects for Disease‐Resistant Breeding

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
A schematic workflow illustrating the screening of disease‐resistant miRNAs and the generation of miRNA‐based disease‐resistant chickens via PGC‐mediated germline genome editing. ABSTRACT MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are emerging as pivotal regulators of the immune system, playing a decisive role in shaping disease resistance in chicken.

Whole-genome sequencing, as a powerful diagnostic tool in hearing loss, reveals novel variants in PTPRQ missed by whole-exome sequencing

BMC Medical Genomics
Background/objectives Hearing loss (HL) is one of the most common congenital disorders, affecting 1-2 in 1,000 newborns. Modern genetic diagnostics using large gene panels and/or whole exome analysis (WES) can identify disease-causing mutations in 25-50 %

Sheep Horn Development Revealed by Multi‐Tissue and Cross‐Species Transcriptomic Analysis

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Multi‐tissue and cross‐species transcriptomics with allele‐specific expression show sheep horns are a composite organ integrating epidermal and osteogenic programs. Conserved horn gene modules and cis‐regulatory variation fine‐tune expression networks underlying horn development and size (small scurs vs. large spiral horns).

Analyzing the performance of deep learning splice prediction algorithms.

PLoS ONE
SpliceAI is the leading tool for predicting splice-altering variants, but restrictive licensing limits clinical adoption. While open-source implementations have been published with author-reported comparisons, independent benchmarking across diverse ...
