In Silico Approach for Prediction of the Structural and Functional Impacts of 184(T>C) Missense Mutation Identified in BRCA1 Gene in a Syrian Breast Cancer Patient [PDF]
Background: The classification of genetic variations depending on their clinical impacts is highly relevant for clinical decision-making. Therefore, predicting the effects of missense mutations using in silico tools has become a frequently employed ...

Elastin genetic point mutation and the risk of pelvic organ prolapse
Aim: A missense mutation in the elastin gene (g28197A > G) is associated with an increased risk for inguinal hernias. Due to the shared epidemiological and pathophysiological features between pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and inguinal hernias, the authors ...

Identification of a DAGLB Mutation in a Non-Chinese Patient with Parkinson's Disease [PDF]
Liu et al. recently reported that biallelic mutations in DAGLB are responsible for autosomal recessive early-onset Parkinson's disease. They identified six patients carrying DAGLB mutations, all of Chinese origin and presenting with typical Parkinson disease.

A missense mutation in PDHB gene: identification of the patient with pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency and demonstration of pathogenicity in vitro. [PDF]
Background Pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) deficiency is an uncommon condition responsible for primary refractory lactic acidosis, and PDH E1β (PDHB) subunit gene mutation rarely causes of PDH deficiency.
