Aminoacyl‐tRNA Synthetases: Variant Classification, Functional Assays, and Emerging Therapeutic Strategies

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aminoacyl‐tRNA synthetases (aaRS) are essential enzymes that charge tRNAs with their corresponding amino acids, playing a critical role in protein synthesis. All 37 nuclear‐encoded ARS genes, comprising both cytosolic (ARS1) and mitochondrial (ARS2) isoforms, have now been linked to human disease.

Novel LAMA1 Mutations in a Pedigree With Poretti‐Boltshauser Syndrome: Implications for Hypomyelination

Molecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study reports novel compound heterozygous LAMA1 variants in two siblings with Poretti‐Boltshauser syndrome presenting with cerebral hypomyelination. It provides the first clinical evidence linking LAMA1 to CNS dysmyelination, expanding the phenotypic spectrum and offering mechanistic insights into this rare association. ABSTRACT Background Poretti‐

Homozygous Pathogenic Variant in Elongation Factor‐Like 1 (EFL1) as a Causal Factor in Shwachman‐Diamond Syndrome 2 in a Palestinian Child, With Distinct Ocular Manifestations

Molecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
We report a Palestinian female infant with a homozygous pathogenic EFL1 variant (c.3284G>A; p.Arg1095Gln) causing Shwachman–Diamond syndrome type 2 (SDS2). Beyond the classical features of pancytopenia, exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, and growth failure, the patient showed previously unreported ocular manifestations—stage 2–3 retinopathy of ...

Carrier screening in the reproductive setting—Are there medical implications for the heterozygote?—A guide for clinicians

Pregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

Characterising PRPF31‐associated retinal dystrophy: Clinical insights from baseline data in a natural history study

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page e317-e328, May 2026.
Abstract Purpose To characterise the baseline clinical features and genotypes of adults with pre‐mRNA processing factor 31 (PRPF31)‐associated retinal dystrophy (RD) enrolled in a prospective, multicentre 4‐year natural history study, and to explore correlations between selected baseline parameters.

Guiding Lights in Genome Editing for Inherited Retinal Disorders: Implications for Gene and Cell Therapy

Neural Plasticity, 2018
Inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs) are a leading cause of visual impairment in the developing world. These conditions present an irreversible dysfunction or loss of neural retinal cells, which significantly impacts quality of life.

Advances in the genetics of refractive errors: Contributions from the CREAM consortium

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page e222-e231, May 2026.
Abstract The Consortium for Refractive Error and Myopia (CREAM) was established in 2011, bringing together an international team of researchers studying more than 30 cohorts. Since its establishment, CREAM has played a pivotal role in research investigating the genetics of myopia and other refractive errors, serving as a key driver of progress in the ...

Reconceptualizing Pediatric Strabismus as a Condition Rooted in Sensory Processing Disorder: A Novel Case-Based Hypothesis

Children
Background/Objectives: A direct link between sensory processing disorder (SPD) and strabismus has not been systematically investigated, though prior studies suggest sensory modulation may influence visual behaviors. Traditional approaches view strabismus

Retinal Pigment Epitheliopathy due to Sub‐Optimal Recycling of Vitamin A (RESORVA): A Novel RDH11 ‐Related Phenotype

Clinical Genetics, Volume 109, Issue 5, Page 972-977, May 2026.
RDH11 is a minor isoenzyme that catalyses the oxidation of 11‐cis‐retinol to 11‐cis‐retinal in the retinal pigment epithelium, alongside RDH5 and RDH10. Biallelic null variants in RDH11 lead to upregulation of RDH5 and RDH10 (transcriptional adaptation), maintaining 11‐cis‐retinal bioavailability, but still causing Retinal Pigment Epitheliopathy due to
