Localization of the Usher syndrome type ID gene (Ush1D) to chromosome 10 [PDF]
The Usher syndromes (USH) are a group of autosomal recessive diseases characterized by progressive pigmentary retinopathy and sensorineural hearing loss. Five USH genes have been mapped and at least one additional gene is known to exist. By homozygosity mapping in a consanguineous family, a sixth USH gene has been localized.

MITF maintains genome stability in nonmelanocyte lineages
MITF is essential for melanocyte survival and acts as an oncogene in 10%–20% of melanomas. We show that MITF depletion causes genome instability in nonmelanocytic cells, leading to LATS2‐mediated P53 activation, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis. This study highlights the role of MITF as a genome maintenance factor beyond the melanocyte lineage. Created

Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II; Hunter syndrome) is an X‐linked recessive lysosomal storage disease caused by a mutation in the IDS gene and characterized by systemic accumulations of glycosaminoglycans.

Detection of Mosaic Variants in Mothers of MPS II Patients by Next Generation Sequencing
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the IDS gene that encodes the iduronate-2-sulfatase enzyme.

The insulin-degrading enzyme gene (IDE) is a strong functional and positional candidate for late onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD).We examined conserved regions of IDE and its 10 kb flanks in 269 AD cases and 252 controls thereby identifying 17 putative functional polymorphisms. These variants formed eleven haplotypes that were tagged with ten variants.

The novel styrylquinazolinone‐based molecule W1B effectively suppresses glioblastoma by inhibiting IGF1R and EGFR. In high‐glucose microenvironments driving tumor resistance, W1B acts synergistically with the EGFR inhibitor dacomitinib. This combination safely blocks compensatory survival signaling in zebrafish xenograft models. Showcasing promising in

Reciprocal Id Expression and Myelin Gene Regulation in Schwann Cells
Id proteins are thought to act as dominant negative antagonists of basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors that direct differentiation in various cell types. We found that Schwann cells express all four Id-family genes and that their transcript levels were reciprocally regulated in pairs during nerve maturation in vivo and cAMP-mediated ...

The proposed mechanism of action for the CDK12/13 inhibitor and cyclin K degrader, CT7439. CDK12/13 inhibition interrupts transcription elongation, leading to increased DNA damage that results in cell death. This agent is a potentially novel treatment option for patients with colorectal cancer. Created in BioRender. Cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK) 12 and

We have recently described the identification of a second IDS locus (IDS-2) located within 90 kb telomeric of the IDS gene (Bondeson et al. submitted). Here, we show that this region is involved in a recombination event with the IDS gene in about 13% of ...
