Mutations in MITF and PAX3 cause "splashed white" and other white spotting phenotypes in horses. [PDF]
During fetal development neural-crest-derived melanoblasts migrate across the entire body surface and differentiate into melanocytes, the pigment-producing cells. Alterations in this precisely regulated process can lead to white spotting patterns.

Mutation-Based White Box Testing of Deep Neural Networks
Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are used in many critical areas, such as autonomous vehicles, generative AI systems, etc. Therefore, testing DNNs is vital, especially for models used in critical areas.

MAP1B mutations cause intellectual disability and extensive white matter deficit [PDF]
AbstractDiscovery of coding variants in genes that confer risk of neurodevelopmental disorders is an important step towards understanding the pathophysiology of these disorders. Whole-genome sequencing of 31,463 Icelanders uncovers a frameshift variant (E712KfsTer10) in microtubule-associated protein 1B (MAP1B) that associates with ID/low IQ in a large

White-matter abnormalities in presymptomaticGRNandC9orf72mutation carriers [PDF]
AbstractA large proportion of familial frontotemporal dementia is caused by TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (transactive response DNA-binding protein 43 kDa) proteinopathies. Accordingly, carriers of autosomal dominant mutations in the genes associated with TAR DNA-binding protein 43 aggregation, such as Chromosome 9 open reading frame 72 (C9orf72) or ...

CT and MRI findings in infantile vanishing white matter
Infantile vanishing white matter disease is an uncommon cause of developmental delay and seizures in children. Presented here is a case of vanishing white matter disease diagnosed at 6 months of age.

The dominant white phenotype in pigs is thought to be mainly due to a structural mutation in the KIT gene, a splice mutation (G > A) at the first base in intron 17 which leads to the deletion of exon 17 in the mature KIT mRNA. However, this hypothesis
