Hot and Splicey: Kinesin Isoforms Seek Attention

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Kinesins family members (KIFs) are encoded in mammals by approximately 45 genes, which are grouped into 14 families based on structural and functional features. As cells increased in complexity, so too did the demand for specialized kinesin‐mediated processes, including intracellular transport, cytoskeletal organization, and cell division. One

Mosaic activation of the zebrafish hsp70l heat shock promoter: Implications for interpreting transgenes

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The promoters and enhancers of heat shock genes, such as the 1.5‐kb promoter of the zebrafish hsp70l gene, are valuable tools for temporal activation of transgenes. It has been widely purported that heat shock treatments result in ubiquitous expression of hsp70l‐driven transgenes.

Oligogenic inheritance in epilepsy: A systematic exome‐wide analysis

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic factors contribute to the majority of epilepsies, but the exact genetic cause remains unknown in most patients. Incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity are frequent, and recent studies showed a burden of deleterious variants in epilepsy genes, suggesting a role for oligogenic inheritance.

A novel deep intronic variant introduce dystrophin pseudoexon in Becker muscular dystrophy: A case report

open access: yesHeliyon
Most pathogenic DMD variants are detectable and interpretable by standard genetic testing for dystrophinopthies. However, approximately 1∼3% of dystrophinopthies patients still do not have a detectable DMD variant after standard genetic testing, most ...

A plugin for the Ensembl Variant Effect Predictor that uses MaxEntScan to predict variant spliceogenicity

open access: yesBioinform., 2018
Summary Assessing the pathogenicity of genetic variants can be a complex and challenging task. Spliceogenic variants, which alter mRNA splicing, may yield mature transcripts that encode non-functional protein products, an important predictor of Mendelian

MutAid variant cross-referencing.

open access: yes, 2016
MutAid constructs direct links to more than 30 publically available databases for each variant in the output summary table. These links are created based on coordinates, and the Entrez gene ID.

Deep whole genome sequencing of epileptogenic brain lesions

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Malformations of cortical development and low‐grade epilepsy‐associated tumors often cause drug‐resistant lesional focal epilepsy (LFE) amenable to surgical treatment. Genetic testing of resected brain tissue can provide diagnostic and mechanistic information and may eventually support personalized treatment approaches.

GeVaCT - Genomic Variant Classifier Tool

open access: yes, 2016
High throughput screening (HTS) techniques, like mendeliome, whole exomeand genome screening, are becoming a routine in a clinical diagnosticsetting. However, classifying the identified genomic variants as benign or(likely) pathogenic, is still a tedious
