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

Gel-Electrophoresis and Diffusion of Ring-Shaped DNA

, 1997
A model for the motion of ring-shaped DNA in a gel is introduced and studied by numerical simulations and a mean-field approximation. The ring motion is mediated by finger-shaped loops (hernias) that move in an amoeba-like fashion around the gel ...
