Compound Heterozygous Loss‐of‐Function Variants in CCM2L in a Fetus With Tetralogy of Fallot
Background Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease. However, our current understanding of the genetic etiology for TOF is limited.

Summary Variants affecting RNA splicing are a major contributor to human disease, yet the consequences of variants outside of the canonical splice motifs are often difficult to determine. Here, we present a protocol for minigene-based evaluation of candidate splice-altering variants. The methodology described includes

Case Report: Evaluation of COL4A5 non-canonical splicing variants in two families
IntroductionAlport syndrome is one of the most prevalent monogenic kidney diseases, resulting from the defects in COL4A3, COL4A4, and/or COL4A5 genes. Interpretation of non-canonical splicing variants can be challenging.

A panel of validated minigene-based splicing assays
A panel of validated minigene-based splicing assays for 11 BC-HR genes. We will synthesize minigenes covering all exons for the selected BC-HR genes. Constructs will be transfected into human epithelial (breast cancer) cell lines. RNA will be extracted and minigene transcripts will be amplified using plasmid-specific primers and analysed by CEP and ...
