Identification of a Second‐Hit Brain Somatic DEPDC5 Variant Supports Causality of a DEPDC5 Germline Variant of Uncertain Significance. Time for a Classification Update?

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Germline variants in DEPDC5 are a cause of familial focal epilepsy with variable foci. Affected individuals may have focal cortical dysplasia if a second brain somatic variant occurs. As access to brain tissue is limited, the second somatic hit in the brain is usually presumed if a clear pathogenic germline variant is present. Here, we present

Intestinal Atresia in PPP1R12A‐Related Urogenital and Brain Malformation Syndrome

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT PPP1R12A‐related urogenital and brain malformation syndrome (UBMS) is a newly described disorder characterized by congenital anomalies primarily involving the urogenital system and the brain. We describe a preterm female neonate with multiple congenital anomalies, including type IIIb jejunal atresia, incomplete intestinal rotation, imperforate

Case Series of Nizon‐Isidor Syndrome by Heterozygous Variants in MED12L With Further Evidence of Mitotic Instability in One Case With Diploid–Triploid Mosaicism

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nizon‐Isidor syndrome is a rare disorder caused by heterozygous variants in MED12L, with only eight documented cases in the literature. Here, we present three additional cases of this syndrome. Proband 1 was a 7‐year‐old female who presented with developmental delay, right‐leg hemihypertrophy, laryngeal cleft, esotropia, abnormal skin ...

De Novo Variants in PPFIA2 in Individuals With Neurodevelopmental Disorders

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Liprin‐α2, encoded by PPFIA2, belongs to the family of Liprin‐α proteins which constitute major synaptic scaffolds participating in the assembly and maturation of synapses. Heterozygous de novo variants in PPFIA2 were identified by exome or genome sequencing in two unrelated individuals with a neurodevelopmental disorder.

Mortality Patterns and Phenotypic Clusters in Trisomy 13: A Population‐Based Study From Japan

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trisomy 13, the third most common autosomal trisomy after trisomy 21 and trisomy 18, is associated with a significantly high infant mortality rate. However, large‐scale studies examining causes of death in trisomy 13 remain scarce. Therefore, we aimed to better understand the mortality patterns.
