Inherited giant platelet disorders [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, 1994
Giant platelet disorders (GPD) refer to rare, usually inherited states characterized by abnormally large platelets, thrombocytopenia and bleeding tendency of variable severity. This review summarizes major clinical and laboratory features of three GPDs (Bernard‐Soulier syndrome, May‐Hegglin anomaly and gray platelet syndrome).

Conserved structural motifs in PAS, LOV, and CRY proteins regulate circadian rhythms and are therapeutic targets

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cryptochrome and PAS/LOV proteins play intricate roles in circadian clocks where they act as both sensors and mediators of protein–protein interactions. Their ubiquitous presence in signaling networks has positioned them as targets for small‐molecule therapeutics. This review provides a structural introduction to these protein families.

Dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria: A rare case report

open access: yesJournal of Mahatma Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences, 2013
Dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria is an autosomal dominant disorder but may be recessive or sporadically inherited disorder, infrequently occurring genodermatosis with peculiar pigmentary changes, consisting of varying sized, intermingled ...

The Huntington's disease mutation impairs Huntingtin's role in the transport of NF-κB from the synapse to the nucleus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Expansion of a polyglutamine (polyQ) tract in the Huntingtin (Htt) protein causes Huntington's disease (HD), a fatal inherited neurodegenerative disorder.

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

FACTOR-X DEFICIENCY: A RARE DISORDER TO BE LOOKED FOR IN CASES OF CONGENITAL BLEEDING TENDENCY [PDF]

open access: yesKhyber Medical University Journal, 2018
Factor X deficiency is a rare, autosomal recessive disorder that involves the coagulation cascade. People with this disorder present with a myriad of early life bleeding complications.

Recent progress in identifying genetic and epigenetic contributions to epilepsy

open access: yesReproductive and Developmental Medicine, 2017
Epilepsy is a serious disorder of the central nervous system characterized by recurrent seizures. There are many known causes of epilepsy, including genetic factors, brain damage, and environmental factors, but the pathogenic mechanisms are largely ...

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Diagnosis of Inherited Platelet Disorders: Clinical Evaluation and Functional and Molecular Assays

open access: yesBiomolecules
Inherited platelet disorders (IPDs) are a group of rare conditions affecting platelet number, function, or both. Clinical manifestations vary widely, from asymptomatic cases to patients with severe bleeding, syndromic features, or early-onset blood ...
