Pervasive Genotypic Mosaicism in Founder Mice Derived from Genome Editing through Pronuclear Injection. [PDF]
Genome editing technologies, especially the Cas9/CRISPR system, have revolutionized biomedical research over the past several years. Generation of novel alleles has been simplified to unprecedented levels, allowing for rapid expansion of available ...

Background Preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) for monogenic disorders (PGT-M) for germline mosaicism was previously highly dependent on polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based directed mutation detection combined with linkage analysis of short tandem ...

Germline mosaicism in Coffin-Lowry syndrome [PDF]
We have identified a Coffin-Lowry syndrome pedigree where the disorder is associated with a novel splice site mutation in the RSK2 gene, leading to in-phase skipping of exon 5. Western blot analysis, using an antibody directed against the C-terminus of RSK2, failed to reveal RSK2 in this patient, suggesting strongly that the resulting internally ...

Human exome sequence data in support of somatic mosaicism in carotid atherosclerosis
Understanding the mechanisms underlying the connection between somatic mosaicism and cardiovascular disease is likely essential for the future of personalized medicine.

Epigenetic germline mosaicism in infertile men [PDF]
Imprinted genes are expressed either from the paternal or the maternal allele, because the other allele has been silenced in the mother's or father's germline. Imprints are characterized by DNA methylation at cytosine phosphate guanine sites. Recently, abnormal sperm parameters and male infertility have been linked to aberrant methylation patterns of ...

Four-dimensional, dynamic mosaicism is a hallmark of normal human skin that permits mapping of the organization and patterning of human epidermis during terminal differentiation. [PDF]
Recent findings of mosaicism (DNA sequence variation) challenge the dogma that each person has a stable genetic constitution. Copy number variations, point mutations and chromosome abnormalities in normal or diseased tissues have been described.

Abnormal mosaicism is the coexistence of cells with at least two genotypes, by the time of birth, in an individual derived from a single zygote, which leads to a disease phenotype. Somatic mosaicism can be further categorized into segmental mosaicism and

Low-level constitutional mosaicism of BRCA1 in two women with young onset ovarian cancer
Germline pathogenic variants in BRCA1 and BRCA2 cause hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. The vast majority of these variants are inherited from a parent. De novo constitutional pathogenic variants are rare. Even fewer cases of constitutional mosaicism

Parental Somatic Mosaicism Uncovers Inheritance of an Apparently De Novo GFAP Mutation
Alexander disease is a leukodystrophy caused by heterozygous mutations of GFAP gene. Recurrence in siblings from healthy parents provides a confirmation to the transmission of variants through germinal mosaicism.

The introduction of next-generation sequencing has resulted in testing multiple genes simultaneously to identify inherited pathogenic variants (PVs) in cancer susceptibility genes. PVs with low minor allele frequencies (MAFs) (
