Exome Sequencing of Consanguineous Pashtun Families With Familial Epilepsy Reveals Causative and Candidate Variants in TSEN54, MOCS2, and OPHN1 [PDF]
The Pashtun population is prone to genetic diseases due to common practice of familial marriage and socio‐cultural isolation. Through exome sequencing of four selected families, we identified causative and candidate variants in TSEN54, MOCS2, and OPHN1.

A prevalent MOCS2 variant in the Roma population is associated with a novel mild form of molybdenum cofactor deficiency [PDF]
Xanthinurias are rare inherited disorders of purine metabolism. Xanthinuria type III is caused by molybdenum cofactor deficiency (MoCD) due to pathogenic variants in MOCS1, MOCS2, MOCS3, or GEPH genes.
