AHDC1 missense mutations in Xia-Gibbs syndrome

Human Genetics and Genomics Advances, 2021
Xia-Gibbs syndrome (XGS; MIM: 615829) is a phenotypically heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder (NDD) caused by newly arising mutations in the AT-Hook DNA-Binding Motif-Containing 1 (AHDC1) gene that are predicted to lead to truncated AHDC1 protein synthesis. More than 270 individuals have been diagnosed with XGS worldwide.

Tau is central in the genetic Alzheimer-frontotemporal dementia spectrum [PDF]

, 2005
In contrast to the common and genetically complex senile form of Alzheimer's disease (AD), the molecular genetic dissection of inherited presenile dementias has given important mechanistic insights into the pathogenesis of degenerative brain disease ...

A novel mutation in the tropomyosin 1 gene in a Chinese patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

All Life, 2022
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an inherited heart disease characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy. Although sarcomeric gene mutations can explain many HCM cases, the genetic basis of approximately half of HCM cases remains elusive.

Circuit topology predicts pathogenicity of missense mutations

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 2022
AbstractThe contact topology of a protein determines important aspects of the folding process. The topological measure of contact order has been shown to be predictive of the rate of folding. Circuit topology is emerging as another fundamental descriptor of biomolecular structure, with predicted effects on the folding rate. We analyze the residue‐based

Population-based estimate of prostate cancer risk for carriers of the HOXB13 missense mutation G84E. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
The HOXB13 missense mutation G84E (rs138213197) is associated with increased risk of prostate cancer, but the current estimate of increased risk has a wide confidence interval (width of 95% confidence interval (CI) >200-fold) so the point estimate of 20 ...
