Detailed analysis of an enriched deep intronic ABCA4 variant in Irish Stargardt disease patients [PDF]
Over 15% of probands in a large cohort of more than 1500 inherited retinal degeneration patients present with a clinical diagnosis of Stargardt disease (STGD1), a recessive form of macular dystrophy caused by biallelic variants in the ABCA4 gene ...

A Deep Intronic Variant in LDLR in Familial Hypercholesterolemia
BACKGROUND: Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is an inherited disorder characterized by high plasma LDL-C (low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol) levels. The vast majority of FH patients carry a mutation in the coding region of LDLR, APOB, or PCSK9.

Intronic variant in POU1F1 associated with canine pituitary dwarfism [PDF]
The anterior pituitary gland secretes several endocrine hormones, essential for growth, reproduction and other basic physiological functions. Abnormal development or function of the pituitary gland leads to isolated or combined pituitary hormone ...

New ABO intron 1 variant alleles [PDF]
Abstract Unusual and discrepant ABO phenotypes are often due to genetic variants that lead to altered levels or activity of ABO transferases and consequently to altered expression of ABO antigens. This report describes eight genetic alterations found in 15 cases with reduced or undetectable expression of ABO ...

A novel deep intronic variant strongly associates with Alkaptonuria [PDF]
AbstractAlkaptonuria is a rare autosomal recessive inherited disorder of tyrosine metabolism, which causes ochronosis, arthropathy, cardiac valvular calcification, and urolithiasis. The epidemiology of alkaptonuria in East Asia is not clear. In this study, patients diagnosed with alkaptonuria from January 2010 to June 2020 were reviewed. Their clinical

RegSNPs-intron: a computational framework for predicting pathogenic impact of intronic single nucleotide variants [PDF]
AbstractSingle nucleotide variants (SNVs) in intronic regions have yet to be systematically investigated for their disease-causing potential. Using known pathogenic and neutral intronic SNVs (iSNVs) as training data, we develop the RegSNPs-intron algorithm based on a random forest classifier that integrates RNA splicing, protein structure, and ...

Molecular characterization of an intronic RNASEH2B variant in a patient with Aicardi-Goutières syndrome [PDF]
Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (AGS) is a progressive multisystem disorder including encephalopathy with significant impacts on intellectual and physical abilities. An early diagnosis is becoming ever more crucial, as targeted therapies are emerging.
