Abstract Objective A significant proportion of individuals with suspected genetic developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) remain unsolved following whole genome sequencing (WGS). Here we describe biallelic RNU2‐2 variants causing a recently reported, severe, recessive DEE.

A translocation heterozygote in garden Canna
A case of translocation heterozygosity has been discovered in gardenCanna. Morphologically the heterozygote is distinctive, being a pygmy type with small flowers which do not open. Cytologically it shows a ring or a chain of 4 plus 7 bivalents.

The genetic architecture of epilepsy across molecular mechanisms and clinical heterogeneity
Abstract Epilepsy comprises a highly heterogeneous group of neurological disorders unified by a persistent predisposition to recurrent seizures, yet driven by remarkably diverse genetic, molecular, and network‐level mechanisms. Advances in genomic technologies have revealed that epilepsy arises from a multilayered genetic architecture encompassing rare

Abstract Objectives Central poststroke pain (CPSP), a neuropathic pain condition, is difficult to treat. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) targeted to the primary motor cortex (M1) can alleviate the condition, but not all patients respond. We aimed to assess a promising alternative rTMS target, the secondary somatosensory cortex (S2),

Identification of a Danish breast/ovarian cancer family double heterozygote for BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations [PDF]
Mutations in the two breast cancer susceptibility genes BRCA1 and BRCA2 are associated with increased risk of breast and ovarian cancer. Patients with mutations in both genes are rarely reported and often involve Ashkenazi founder mutations.

MHC allele frequency distributions under parasite-driven selection: A simulation model
Background The extreme polymorphism that is observed in major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes, which code for proteins involved in recognition of non-self oligopeptides, is thought to result from a pressure exerted by parasites because parasite ...

Abstract Lynch syndrome (LS) is the most common hereditary colorectal cancer syndrome, caused by a germline pathogenic variant in one of the mismatch repair (MMR) genes. Among these, MSH6‐associated LS represents a distinct subtype with unique molecular and clinical characteristics.
