Pathogenic determinants and mechanisms of ALS/FTD linked to hexanucleotide repeat expansions in the C9orf72 gene. [PDF]

, 2017
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are two apparently distinct neurodegenerative diseases, the former characterized by selective loss of motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord and the latter characterized by ...

Impact of functional studies on exome sequence variant interpretation in early-onset cardiac conduction system diseases [PDF]

, 2020
Aims The genetic cause of cardiac conduction system disease (CCSD) has not been fully elucidated. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) can detect various genetic variants; however, the identification of pathogenic variants remains a challenge.

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

Clinical, electrophysiological and molecular genetic characteristics of 93 patients with X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease [PDF]

Brain, 2001
X-linked dominant Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMTX) disease is a motor and sensory neuropathy caused by mutations in the connexin 32 (CX32) gene. In this study we report the clinical, electrophysiological and genetic features of 93 patients (41 males, 52 females) from 37 unrelated families with CMTX.

Perspectives of carriers of X‐linked retinal diseases on genetic testing and gene therapy: A global survey

Clinical Genetics, 2023
Abstract Female carriers of X‐linked inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are burdened with potentially passing their disease‐causing variant to future generations, as well as exhibiting signs of retinal disease themselves. This study aimed to investigate carriers' experiences of genetic testing, emotions relating to

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...
