New insights into applications of base editor in hereditary disorders
Abstract Hereditary disorders are a group of diseases caused by genetic mutations or chromosomal variations. Although the incidence of each genetic disorder is relatively low, patients affected by the disease generally experience a range of severe symptoms, including blindness, disability, and even premature death. In addition, the available treatments

Molecular genetics of Leber congenital amaurosis [PDF]
Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) is the most common inherited cause of blindness in childhood and is characterised by a severe retinal dystrophy before the age of one year. Six genes have been identified that together account for approximately half of all LCA patients.

The Impact of QSP Modeling on the Design and Optimization of Gene Therapy Approaches
ABSTRACT Quantitative Systems Pharmacology (QSP) is increasingly utilized to support the design and translation of gene therapies. This perspective outlines the application of QSP modeling across three domains of gene therapy: mRNA‐based therapeutics, adeno‐associated virus (AAV) vectors, and genome editing systems.

RPGR protein complex regulates proteasome activity and mediates store-operated calcium entry [PDF]
Ciliopathies are a group of genetically heterogeneous disorders, characterized by defects in cilia genesis or maintenance. Mutations in the RPGR gene and its interacting partners, RPGRIP1 and RPGRIP1L, cause ciliopathies, but the function of their ...

Decoding the Genetic Puzzle of Inherited Retinal Dystrophies: Novel Insights From a Turkish Cohort
This study analyzes 94 IRD patients from a Turkish cohort using a 141‐gene NGS panel, achieving a 74% diagnostic yield. The identification of 28 novel variants highlights the genetic diversity of IRDs in Türkiye and underscores the value of population‐specific molecular testing.
