Genetics in Heterotaxy: A Case Series and Literature Review on DNAH9, PKD1L1, MMP21, and GDF1

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Integrating trio‐based genomic sequencing with detailed clinical evaluation across seven French–Vietnamese heterotaxy cases alongside a review of 108 published patients reveals strong genotype–phenotype correlations. Variants in DNAH9, PKD1L1, MMP21, and GDF1 define a broad spectrum from isolated situs inversus to complex conotruncal heart defects and ...

Identification of Copy Number Variants as a Suspected Cause of Cerebral Small Vessel Disease

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Whole‐exome sequencing of 111 patients with suspected familial cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) identified novel copy number variants in four patients across NOTCH3, LMNB1, and COL4A2, using bioinformatic and molecular techniques. These validated CNVs suggest structural variation is an underrecognized potential causal contributor to monogenic CSVD ...

Pathogenicity of NUSAP1 Variants Is Defined by NMD‐Escape: Evidence From Two Novel Cases and Systematic Population‐Based Variant Analysis

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Heterozygous de novo nonsense variants in the penultimate and last exons of NUSAP1 were identified in two unrelated individuals, predicted to escape NMD. In population data, nonsense variants were observed in exons 1–9 (of 11) in NUSAP1 but were absent from its 3′‐terminal region.

A Homozygous Frameshift Variant in KHDC4 Is Associated With a Syndromic Inherited Retinal Disease in Humans

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
We identified a homozygous frameshift variant in KHDC4 (c.1535_1538del: (p.Lys512Argfs*8) in a consanguineous family with syndromic Retinitis Pigmentosa. Functional characterization shows aberrant protein mislocalisation from nuclear speckles to a diffuse pattern.

Importance of using genetic data to inform conservation captive breeding: A tale of two species of threatened macaws (Ara spp.)

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Unmanaged captive populations of threatened species often harbor hidden genetic risks, so using genomic tools, we audited a large private macaw collection and uncovered extensive hybridization and high inbreeding. Our findings provide an actionable framework for how routine genetic screening can be used to mitigate these risks, manage captive breeding ...

A novel deep intronic EIF2AK3 variant disrupts splicing and causes Wolcott–Rallison syndrome

Diabetic Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Deep intronic variants can disrupt splicing and cause monogenic disease but are missed by routine genetic testing. This study assessed the contribution of deep intronic variants to Wolcott–Rallison syndrome (WRS), a recessive disorder characterized by early‐onset diabetes and progressive multisystem disease caused by loss‐of‐function ...

Genetic dissection reveals distinct contributions of the eS31 N‐terminal domain to translational accuracy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The eukaryote‐specific N‐terminal domain (NTD) of eS31 uses two distinct strategies to maintain translation fidelity. During elongation, a positively charged “hotspot” fine‐tunes the selection of incoming aa‐tRNA. During termination, the entire NTD acts as a structural scaffold to ensure the correct positioning of the release factor eRF1.
