CA9‐targeted PET imaging could be a noninvasive approach to characterize clear cell renal cell carcinoma and associated tumor biology. PET uptake correlates with tumor CA9 expression and is linked to angiogenic activity, immune remodeling, and metabolic reprogramming.

COX14 Variants Are Associated With Mitochondrial Complex IV Deficiency Nuclear Type 10 (MC4DN10)
ABSTRACT COX14 encodes a transmembrane protein essential for cytochrome c oxidase (COX) complex assembly. A homozygous missense variant in COX14 was reported in three siblings from a single consanguineous family with severe, fatal infantile mitochondrial complex IV deficiency nuclear type 10 (MC4DN10; MIM# 619053).

ABSTRACT CHARGE syndrome is a rare congenital disorder primarily attributed to heterozygous pathogenic variants of the CHD7 gene. Most pathogenic CHD7 variants are loss‐of‐function (LoF) variants, whereas the interpretation of missense variants remains challenging in the absence of functional evidence for their pathogenicity.

Extending the ATP9A‐Related Phenotypic Spectrum: Indication of Schizophrenia Susceptibility
ABSTRACT ATP9A, which belongs to the P4‐ATPase family of proteins, is involved in the efficient transport of vesicles from the Golgi apparatus to the plasma membrane, as well as the release of extracellular vesicles from human cells. In 2021, a loss‐of‐function variant of this gene was identified as being associated with a recessive neurodevelopmental ...

Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay Factor Functions in Human Health and Disease
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a cellular surveillance mechanism that degrades mRNAs with a premature stop codon, avoiding the synthesis of C-terminally truncated proteins. In addition to faulty mRNAs, NMD recognises ~10% of endogenous transcripts

A rhesus macaque model of α‐dystroglycanopathy caused by a POMT1 splice altering variant
Rhesus macaques homozygous for a naturally occurring spice altering variant in the POMT1 gene develop lissencephaly, microphthalmia, and muscular contracture. The presentation models severe presentation of the human Walker‐Warburg syndrome. Abstract Background Biallelic mutations in genes associated with α‐dystroglycan glycosylation manifest in a ...

The Substrates of Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay in Caenorhabditis elegans
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a conserved pathway that strongly influences eukaryotic gene expression. Inactivating or inhibiting NMD affects the abundance of a substantial fraction of the transcriptome in numerous species.

Genetic Diversity, Adaptation, Wild Introgression, and Coat Color Mutation of Golden Yak
Genetic diversity, adaptation, wild introgression, and coat color mutation of golden yak from two populations on the Qinghai‐Xizang Plateau. ABSTRACT The golden yak lives on the Qinghai‐Xizang Plateau with a golden coat and adapts to high altitudes and strong ultraviolet environment. The golden coat is a prominent phenotype in many domesticated species,

Nonsense‐mediated decay targets have multiple sequence‐related features that can inhibit translation
Nonsense‐mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a surveillance system that eliminates transcripts with premature termination codons. In this study, we show that mRNAs targeted by NMD are also suppressed at the translational level. The low translational efficiency (
