Sporadic white sponge nevus caused by a mutation in the keratin 4 gene

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Cases, 2020
Herein, we present a sporadic case of white sponge nevus (WSN) on the cheek mucosa in a 27-year-old Japanese man. A definite diagnosis of WSN was obtained using the typical clinical appearance and microscopic features of the lesions.

Endothelin receptor B2 (EDNRB2) is responsible for the tyrosinase-independent recessive white (mo(w) ) and mottled (mo) plumage phenotypes in the chicken. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
A mutation that confers white plumage with black eyes was identified in the Minohiki breed of Japanese native chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus). The white plumage, with a few partially pigmented feathers, was not associated with the tyrosinase gene, and

Presence of the ABCB1 (MDR1) deletion mutation causing ivermectin hypersensitivity in certain dog breeds in Belgium [PDF]

, 2009
Hypersensitivity to ivermectin and certain other drugs in Collies and related breeds is caused by a 4-base pair deletion mutation in the ABCB1 gene, better known as the MDR1 gene, encoding P-glycoprotein.

Insertional DNA and spontaneous mutation at the white locus in Drosophila simulans

Molecular and General Genetics MGG, 1987
A large body of data on molecular analyses of several multiallelic loci in Drosophila melanogaster has demonstrated a high incidence of mobile DNA element insertions among spontaneous mutations. In the sibling species D. simulans, the dispersed, middle repetitive, nomadic sequences are reduced to about one-seventh that of its sibling species (Dowsett ...

Stabilization of hen egg white lysozyme by a cavity‐filling mutation [PDF]

Protein Science, 2001
AbstractStabilization of a protein using cavity‐filling strategy has hardly been successful because of unfavorable van der Waals contacts. We succeeded in stabilizing lysozymes by cavity‐filling mutations. The mutations were checked by a simple energy minimization in advance.

Insights into pegRNA design from editing of the cardiomyopathy‐associated phospholamban R14del mutation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how prime editing guide RNA (pegRNA) secondary structure and reverse transcriptase template length affect prime editing efficiency in correcting the phospholamban R14del cardiomyopathy‐associated mutation. Insights support the design of structurally optimized enhanced pegRNAs for precise gene therapy.

Relationship between genetic mutation variations and acute-phase reactants in the attack-free period of children diagnosed with familial Mediterranean fever

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2013
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is a periodic autoinflammatory disease characterized by chronic inflammation. This study investigated the relationship between acute-phase reactants and gene mutations in attack-free periods of childhood FMF.
