Expanding the Utility of Exome Sequencing in Preventive and Population Genetics
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Carrier screening is a long‐standing genetic testing process offered to at‐risk couples, with or without a family history, who might have pregnancies affected by an autosomal recessive (AR) or X‐linked (XL) disorder. A total of 276 unrelated individuals, initially referred for rare disorder screening by clinicians, were enrolled in this study ...

Ocular and Systemic Findings in COL2A1 and COL11A1 Stickler Syndrome
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Stickler syndrome is most commonly caused by variants in COL2A1 and COL11A1 genes. The purpose of this study was to describe genetic variants and phenotypes in COL2A1 and COL11A1 Stickler syndrome. We performed a retrospective genotype–phenotype evaluation of COL2A1 and COL11A1 Stickler syndrome subjects. Thirty‐two subjects with COL2A1 and 13

Spinal Involvement in Charge Syndrome: Implications for Management
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT CHARGE syndrome (OMIM #214800) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations in the CHD7 gene in most cases. Although originally defined by the CHARGE acronym (coloboma, heart defects, choanal atresia, growth restriction, genital hypoplasia, and ear anomalies), the recognized phenotype has expanded considerably to include highly ...
