The MSH2 c.793-1G>A variant disrupts normal splicing and is associated with Lynch syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2023
InstructionLynch syndrome (LS) is the most common inherited cancer predisposition disorder of colorectal cancer (CRC) which is associated with pathogenic variants in 4 mismatch repair (MMR) genes.

Functional Classification of BRCA2 DNA Variants by Splicing Assays in a Large Minigene with 9 Exons [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Mutation, 2015
Numerous pathogenic DNA variants impair the splicing mechanism in human genetic diseases. Minigenes are optimal approaches to test variants under the splicing viewpoint without the need of patient samples. We aimed to design a robust minigene construct of the breast cancer gene BRCA2 in order to investigate the impact of variants on splicing.

A novel splicing pathogenic variant in COL1A1 causing osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) type I in a Chinese family

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2020
Background Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a rare autosomal inheritable disorder characterized by bone fragility and skeletal deformity, is caused by pathogenic variants in genes impairing the synthesis and processing of extracellular matrix protein ...

Minigene Splice Assays Allow Pathogenicity Reclassification of RPE65 Variants of Uncertain Significance [PDF]

open access: yesGenes
Background/objectives: Obtaining a genetic diagnosis for patients with inherited retinal diseases has become even more important since gene-specific therapies have become available. When genetic screening reveals variants of uncertain significance (VUS), additional evidence is required to determine genetic eligibility for therapy. Confirming the effect

Splicing impact of deep exonic missense variants in CAPN3 explored systematically by minigene functional assay [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Mutation, 2020
ABSTRACT Improving the accuracy of variant interpretation during diagnostic sequencing is a major goal for genomic medicine. In order to explore an often overlooked splicing effect of missense variants, we developed the functional assay (“minigene”) for the majority of exons of CAPN3

Identified eleven exon variants in PKD1 and PKD2 genes that altered RNA splicing by minigene assay

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2023
Abstract Background Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a common monogenic multisystem disease caused primarily by mutations in the PKD1 gene or PKD2 gene. There is increasing evidence that some of these variants, which are described as missense, synonymous or nonsense mutations in the literature or ...

Minigene splicing assays reveal new insights into exonic variants of the SLC12A3 gene in Gitelman syndrome

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2023
AbstractBackgroundGitelman syndrome (GS) is a type of salt‐losing tubular disease, most of which is caused by SLC12A3 gene variants, and missense variants account for the majority. Recently, the phenomenon of exon skipping, in which variants disrupt normal pre‐mRNA splicing, has been related to a variety of diseases.

Deltacoronavirus Modulates circRNA cGLIS3 Metabolism to Evade Host Antiviral Response

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that both deltacoronavirus nucleocapsid protein and host RNA binding protein IGF2BP2 promote circular RNA GLIS3 (cGLIS3) biogenesis by binding to GLIS3 pre‐mRNA. The m6A modification‐mediated cGLIS3‐IGF2BP2 interaction weakens RNase L‐mediated degradation of cGLIS3 while facilitates a ubiquitin‐dependent degradation of IGF2BP2, thus ...

Investigating the molecular basis of the serological Rh D‐negative phenotype in Indonesia: nature, frequency, and impact for diagnostics

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Although widely studied and reported for more than 30 years, the molecular basis of Rh D‐negativity has remained unexplored in several regions of the world, including in Indonesia, Southeast Asia. Study Design and Methods A subset of 436 Indonesian blood donors originally typed D‐negative (D–) by routine serological testing was ...
