Recurrent Neurodevelopmental Disorder Associated With a Dominant‐Negative TOP2B H63Y Variant

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We describe a 7 year‐old boy with severe neurodevelopmental disorder, medically‐refractory epileptic encephalopathy, hyperkinetic movement disorder, hypotonia, cerebral and cerebellar atrophy and hypomyelination who was found to have a heterozygous de novo TOP2B NM_001330700.2:c.187C>T, p.(His63Tyr) variant.

A Novel Splice Variant in ERGIC1 Causes Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita—Characterization Using Urine‐Derived Cells

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is defined as the presence of joint contractures affecting at least two body regions at birth. Three different ERGIC1 variants have been reported in individuals with AMC. Here, we report on a 16‐year‐old male with a homozygous ERGIC1 c.250+1G>A variant that was classified as a variant of uncertain ...

Mosaic KRAS Variant as a Cause of Developmental Eye Anomalies in an Individual With EncephaloCranioCutaneous Lipomatosis

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
We describe a girl presenting with structural eye anomalies and a constellation of features suggestive of the mosaic RASopathy EncephaloCranioCutaneous Lipomatosis (ECCL). Tissue‐specific investigations identified a mosaic KRAS variant at a mutational hotspot (p.[Ala146Pro]), prompting appropriate tumour surveillance.

Two-Dimensional Image-Based Screening Tool for Infants with Positional Cranial Deformities: A Machine Learning Approach

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2020
Positional cranial deformities are relatively common conditions, characterized by asymmetry and changes in skull shape. Although three-dimensional (3D) scanning is the gold standard for diagnosing such deformities, it requires expensive laser scanners ...

PUS7 Deficiency: Phenotypical Expansion of PUS7‐Related Neurodevelopmental Disorders

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 11, Page 2547-2552, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in PUS7, encoding pseudouridine synthase 7, cause a rare neurodevelopmental disorder marked by intellectual disability, microcephaly, short stature, and behavioral disturbances. Since the first report in 2018, only 16 patients have been described.
