A Premature Termination Codon Mutation in MYBPC3 Causes Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy via Chronic Activation of Nonsense-Mediated Decay

Circulation, 2019
Background: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is frequently caused by mutations in myosin-binding protein C3 (MYBPC3) resulting in a premature termination codon (PTC).

Friedreich’s Ataxia: Clinical Presentation of a Compound Heterozygote Child with a Rare Nonsense Mutation and Comparison with Previously Published Cases

Case Reports in Neurological Medicine, 2018
Friedreich’s ataxia is a neurodegenerative disorder associated with a GAA trinucleotide repeat expansion in intron 1 of the frataxin (FXN) gene. It is the most common autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia, with a mean age of onset at 16 years.

A Nonsense Mutation in the Hedgehog Receptor CDON Associated With Pituitary Stalk Interruption Syndrome.

Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2016
BACKGROUND Pituitary stalk interruption syndrome (PSIS) and holoprosencephaly (HPE) are congenital midline defects. Rare mutations in the sonic hedgehog (SHH) signaling gene CDON have recently been reported in patients with HPE.

Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay efficiency varies in choroideremia providing a target to boost small molecule therapeutics [PDF]

, 2019
Choroideremia (CHM) is an x-linked recessive chorioretinal dystrophy, with 30% caused by nonsense mutations in the CHM gene resulting in an in-frame premature termination codon (PTC).
