Mutation analysis of exon 5 of PAH gene in phenylketonuria patients from Golestan Province, Iran [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Shahrekord University of Medical Sciences, 2022
Background and aims: In the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene, various mutations are mainly responsible for phenylketonuria (PKU). After thalassemia, PKU is considered as the most common autosomal recessive disease among Iranian population. Therefore,

The C55A Single Nucleotide Polymorphism in CTLA-4 Gene, a New Possible Biomarker in Thyroid Autoimmune Pathology Such as Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2023
Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by the production of autoantibodies against the thyroid gland. Different studies have shown that several genes may be associated with HT, which explains why patients often have ...

A novel AIRE mutation leads to autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type-1

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type-1 (APS-1) is a rare inherited monogenic autoimmune disease characterized by the presence of at least two of three following major clinical features: chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis, hypoparathyroidism, and adrenal

JuncDB: an exon–exon junction database [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2015
Intron positions upon the mRNA transcript are sometimes remarkably conserved even across distantly related eukaryotic species. This has made the comparison of intron-exon architectures across orthologous transcripts a very useful tool for studying various evolutionary processes.

Intronization Signatures in Coding Exons Reveal the Evolutionary Fluidity of Eukaryotic Gene Architecture

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
The conventionally clear distinction between exons and introns in eukaryotic genes is actually blurred. To illustrate this point, consider sequences that are retained in mature mRNAs about 50% of the time: how should they be classified?

Primary Coenzyme Q10 Deficiency-7 and Pathogenic COQ4 Variants: Clinical Presentation, Biochemical Analyses, and Treatment

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Primary Coenzyme Q10 Deficiency-7 (COQ10D7) is a rare mitochondrial disorder caused by pathogenic COQ4 variants. In this review, we discuss the correlation of COQ4 genotypes, particularly the East Asian-specific c.370G > A variant, with the clinical ...

All exons are not created equal—exon vulnerability determines the effect of exonic mutations on splicing

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2023
Abstract It is now widely accepted that aberrant splicing of constitutive exons is often caused by mutations affecting cis-acting splicing regulatory elements (SREs), but there is a misconception that all exons have an equal dependency on SREs and thus a similar vulnerability to aberrant splicing.

Crossing the Exon [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2010
Pathways of intron/exon specification that drive spliceosome assembly remain unclear. In this issue of Molecular Cell, Schneider et al. (2010) extensively characterize complexes formed on exons, demonstrating unexpected components and providing insights into the switch from cross-exon to cross-intron interactions.

Detection of internal exon deletion with exon Del [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2014
Exome sequencing allows researchers to study the human genome in unprecedented detail. Among the many types of variants detectable through exome sequencing, one of the most over looked types of mutation is internal deletion of exons. Internal exon deletions are the absence of consecutive exons in a gene.

Molecular Profiling of FIX (FACTOR 9) Gene of Hemophilia B in Karnataka

open access: yesBLDE University Journal of Health Sciences, 2020
Introduction: Haemophilia is one of the “Bleeder Disorder” that causes abnormal bleeding or poor blood clotting. It occurs due to the defect in the clotting factors even in their functions and in some cases structures are altered.
