A whole exome sequencing study to identify rare variants in multiplex families with alcohol use disorder

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2023
BackgroundAlcohol use disorder (AUD) runs in families and is accompanied by genetic variation. Some families exhibit an extreme susceptibility in which multiple cases are found and often with an early onset of the disorder.

Identification of a de novo Mutation in TMEM106B in a Saudi Child Causes Hypomyelination Leukodystrophy

open access: yesGlobal Medical Genetics, 2023
Hypomyelinating leukodystrophies are one of the white matter disorders caused by a lack of myelin deposition in the central nervous system (CNS). Here, we report the first case of hypomyelinating leukodystrophy in the Middle East and Saudi Arabia.

De Novo Occurrence of a Variant in ARL3 and Apparent Autosomal Dominant Transmission of Retinitis Pigmentosa. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BackgroundRetinitis pigmentosa is a phenotype with diverse genetic causes. Due to this genetic heterogeneity, genome-wide identification and analysis of protein-altering DNA variants by exome sequencing is a powerful tool for novel variant and disease ...

Exome sequencing of deer mice on two California Channel Islands identifies potential adaptation to strongly contrasting ecological conditions

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Understanding the forces that drive genotypic and phenotypic change in wild populations is a central goal of evolutionary biology. We examined exome variation in populations of deer mice from two of the California Channel Islands: Peromyscus maniculatus ...

Recurrent Pregnancy Loss and Concealed Long‐QT Syndrome

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background Recurrent pregnancy loss affects 1% to 2% of couples attempting childbirth. A large fraction of all cases remains idiopathic, which warrants research into monogenic causes of this distressing disorder.

Bi-allelic mutations in PRUNE lead to neurodegeneration with spinal motor neuron involvement and hyperCKaemia

open access: yesThe Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2019
We aimed to systematically investigate the neuromuscular involvement of individuals with PRUNE mutations who may have a major spinal motor neuron involvement as part of the PRUNE-associated neurodegenerative phenotype.

Exome Sequencing in Children [PDF]

open access: yesDeutsches Ärzteblatt international, 2019
In developed countries, global developmental disorders are encounter- ed in approximately 1% of all children. The causes are manifold, and no exogenous cause can be identified in about half of the affected children. The parallel investi- gation of the coding sequences of all genes of the affected individual (whole exome sequencing, WES) has developed ...

Missense-depleted regions in population exomes implicate ras superfamily nucleotide-binding protein alteration in patients with brain malformation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Genomic sequence interpretation can miss clinically relevant missense variants for several reasons. Rare missense variants are numerous in the exome and difficult to prioritise. Affected genes may also not have existing disease association.
