Exome sequencing of Finnish isolates enhances rare-variant association power

open access: yesNature, 2019
Exome-sequencing studies have generally been underpowered to identify deleterious alleles with a large effect on complex traits as such alleles are mostly rare.

GATA3 Deletion Associated With Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis: Expanding the Phenotypic Spectrum of Hypoparathyroidism, Sensorineural Deafness, and Renal Dysplasia (HDR) Syndrome

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hypoparathyroidism, sensorineural deafness, and renal dysplasia (HDR) syndrome is caused by pathogenic variants in the GATA3 gene located on chromosome 10p14. Here we present a 10‐year‐old girl with HDR syndrome who also has oligoarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA).

Apert's syndrome: Study by whole exome sequencing

open access: yesGenes and Diseases, 2018
In the present study we attempted a parent–child trio, whole exome sequencing (WES) approach to study Apert's syndrome. Clinical characteristics of the child were noted down and WES was carried out using Ion Torrent System that revealed the presence of ...

Improving the diagnostic yield of exome- sequencing by predicting gene–phenotype associations using large-scale gene expression analysis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The diagnostic yield of exome and genome sequencing remains low (8–70%), due to incomplete knowledge on the genes that cause disease. To improve this, we use RNA-seq data from 31,499 samples to predict which genes cause specific disease phenotypes, and ...

Variant Update on ASCC1: Characterization of the First Homozygous Missense Variant Involved in Prenatal‐Onset Spinal Muscular Atrophy With Congenital Bone Fractures 2

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spinal muscular atrophy with congenital bone fractures 2 is a rare and severe autosomal recessive neuromuscular disorder caused by pathogenic variants in ASCC1. This condition characterized by prenatal onset of severe hypotonia with fetal hypokinesia and congenital contractures results in arthrogryposis multiplex congenita, and increased ...

Genotypes and Phenotypes of Patients With TSPEAR‐Related Disorder: Evidence of a Predominant Dental Phenotype

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT TSPEAR (chr. 21q22.3) encodes a protein involved in tooth development and is predominantly expressed in the enamel knot. Biallelic loss of function variants in TSPEAR cause ectodermal dysplasia, tooth agenesis and sensorineural hearing loss. However, the role of TSPEAR in auditory processes is unclear.

Further evidence for the involvement of EFL1 in a Shwachman-Diamond-like syndrome and expansion of the phenotypic features. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Recent evidence has implicated EFL1 in a phenotype overlapping Shwachman-Diamond syndrome (SDS), with the functional interplay between EFL1 and the previously known causative gene SBDS accounting for the similarity in clinical features. Relatively little

Syndrome of the Month: An Update on Smith‐Kingsmore Syndrome: Characterization of Developmental Milestones and a Review of the Literature

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smith‐Kingsmore syndrome (SKS) is a rare autosomal dominant condition characterized by neurodevelopmental differences, macrocephaly/megalencephaly, describable facial features, sleep–wake abnormalities, hyperphagia, and overgrowth. SKS is caused by pathogenic gain‐of‐function variants in MTOR which lead to hyperactivation of the mTOR pathway ...
