A novel hypomorphic splice variant in EIF2B5 gene is associated with mild ovarioleukodystrophy
Objective To identify the genetic cause in an adult ovarioleukodystrophy patient resistant to diagnosis. Methods We applied whole‐exome sequencing (WES) to a vanishing white matter disease patient associated with premature ovarian failure at 26 years of ...

Mutation of c.244G>T in NR5A1 gene causing 46, XY DSD by affecting RNA splicing
Objective To identify the pathogenic mechanism of the c.244G>T mutation in NR5A1 gene found in a Chinese patient with 46, XY disorders of sex development (DSD). Subjects and methods: Genomic DNA was extracted from a Chinese 46, XY DSD patient.

Assessing the effects of ANO7 mutations on mRNA splicing using a minigene splicing assay [PDF]
Prostate cancer (PrCa) is the most common cancer type in men. Dysregulated splicing is considered a hallmark of cancer, and PrCa has its own characteristic splicing landscape. Alternative splicing (AS) enables production of multiple protein isoforms

Splicing predictions, minigene analyses, and ACMG-AMP clinical classification of 42 germline PALB2 splice-site variants [PDF]
PALB2 loss-of-function variants confer high risk of developing breast cancer. Here we present a systematic functional analysis of PALB2 splice-site variants detected in approximately 113,000 women in the large-scale sequencing project Breast Cancer ...

Effect of RHAG variants identified in Chinese population on RHAG mRNA splicing in vitro
Objective To study the effect of RHAG variants identified in Chinese population on mRNA splicing by minigene splicing assay(MSA) in vitro. Methods The pSplicePOLR2G minigene expression plasmids were constructed for 10 RHAG mutations with relatively high ...
