Combined Long‐Read Genome and Transcriptome Sequencing Establishes Novel Variants in MEGF8 as the Cause for Carpenter Syndrome Type 2

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carpenter syndrome type 2 (CRPT2) is a rare autosomal recessive disease mainly characterized by craniosynostosis and polysyndactyly. CRPT2 is the rarer subtype of Carpenter syndrome (CRPTS) and is caused by biallelic variants in the multiple epidermal growth factor‐like domains 8 gene (MEGF8).

Expanding the Phenotype of TUFM‐Related Combined Oxidative Phosphorylation Deficiency 4

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 4 (COXPD4) is a rare mitochondrial condition caused by biallelic deleterious variants in the nuclear‐encoded gene TUFM. To date, most individuals with COXPD4 have presented with encephalopathy, hypotonia, and abnormal brain imaging. Many of the reported individuals died in infancy. We aim to expand

The Critical Role of Fractionated Urine Glycosaminoglycans in the Evaluation of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II in Four Unrelated Families

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since 2015, Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital has performed diagnostic testing for infants who screen positive for mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II) on the Illinois newborn screen. Preliminary diagnostic testing includes measurement of plasma iduronate‐2‐sulfatase enzyme activity and urinary glycosaminoglycan analysis, followed ...

Long‐Term Follow Up of Two Patients With Variants in the Cluster 1031‐1159 of TRRAP Gene: Expanding the Phenotype of Developmental Delay With or Without Dysmorphic Facies and Autism

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transformation/transcription domain‐associated protein (TRRAP) gene encodes a large multidomain protein, a member of the phosphatidylinositol 3‐kinase‐related kinase (PIKK) family. TRRAP is a component of the histone acetyltransferase (HAT) complex, and it plays an important role in gene transcription, DNA repair, and cell‐cycle regulation.
