Analysis of Treacher Collins syndrome 4‐associated mutations in Schizosaccharomyces pombe
Fission yeast models carrying Treacher Collins syndrome type 4‐associated mutations reveal that impaired processivity of RNA polymerase I leads to defective rRNA transcription. This study highlights the essential role of a conserved arginine residue in Pol I elongation and provides mechanistic insight into the pathogenesis of ribosomopathies.

The TCOF1 gene is mutated in Treacher Collin's syndrome, a congenital craniofacial syndrome. Here, the authors show that Tcof1loss-of-function results in oxidative stress induced DNA damage and neuroepithelial cell death, and addition of antioxidants to ...

Targeted Next-Generation Sequencing in the Diagnosis of Facial Dysostoses
BackgroundDefects in the development of the first and second pharyngeal arches and their derivatives result in abnormal formation of the craniofacial complex, consequently giving rise to facial dysostoses (FDs).

Hirschsprung-like disease is exacerbated by reduced de novo GMP synthesis [PDF]
Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) is a partially penetrant oligogenic birth defect that occurs when enteric nervous system (ENS) precursors fail to colonize the distal bowel during early pregnancy.

Molecular basis of the human ribosomopathy Shwachman-Diamond syndrome [PDF]
Mutations that target the ubiquitous process of ribosome assembly paradoxically cause diverse tissue-specific disorders (ribosomopathies) that are often associated with an increased risk of cancer. Ribosomes are the essential macromolecular machines that

Genetic Landscape of Robin Sequence: A Systematic Review
This systematic review summarizes the genetic landscape of Robin sequence (RS), highlighting key differences between isolated and non‐isolated forms and emphasizing the role of up‐to‐date genetic testing for diagnosis and clinical management. ABSTRACT Robin sequence (RS) is a congenital condition characterized by micrognathia, glossoptosis, and upper ...

Abstract Diamond–Blackfan anemia (DBA) is a rare bone marrow failure syndrome accompanied by cardiovascular, skeletal, and urogenital abnormalities. Most of the affected individuals carry mutations in ribosomal proteins, including RPS19, a component of the 40S ribosomal subunit.

THE INFLUENCE OF FGFR1 VARIANTS ON NORMAL HUMAN CRANIOFACIAL SHAPE [PDF]
The factors influencing the morphology of the human face are of interest to researchers in a variety of different fields. Craniofacial morphology is modified by both genetic and epigenetic events, and factors influencing craniofacial morphology include ...
