Whole Exome Sequencing of Intracranial Aneurysm [PDF]
The risk of intracranial aneurysm (IA) is increased among individuals with first-degree relatives with history of IA.1 A variety of approaches have been used to identify genes that contribute to the risk of IA.2–4 Genomewide association studies have identified and replicated associations on chromosome 4q31.23 ( EDNRA ), 8q12.1 ( SOX17 ), 9p21.3 ...

Whole exome sequencing of adenoid cystic carcinoma [PDF]
Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignancy that can occur in multiple organ sites and is primarily found in the salivary gland. While the identification of recurrent fusions of the MYB-NFIB genes have begun to shed light on the molecular underpinnings, little else is known about the molecular genetics of this frequently fatal cancer.

Abstract Dynamin 1 is a GTPase protein involved in synaptic vesicle fission, which facilitates the exocytosis of neurotransmitters necessary for normal signaling. Pathogenic variants in the DNM1 gene are associated with intractable epilepsy, often manifested as infantile spasms at onset, developmental delay, and a movement disorder, and are located in ...

Missense-depleted regions in population exomes implicate ras superfamily nucleotide-binding protein alteration in patients with brain malformation. [PDF]
Genomic sequence interpretation can miss clinically relevant missense variants for several reasons. Rare missense variants are numerous in the exome and difficult to prioritise. Affected genes may also not have existing disease association.

Whole-exome sequencing in familial atrial fibrillation [PDF]
Positional cloning and candidate gene approaches have shown that atrial fibrillation (AF) is a complex disease with familial aggregation. Here, we employed whole-exome sequencing (WES) in AF kindreds to identify variants associated with familial AF.WES was performed on 18 individuals in six modestly sized familial AF kindreds. After filtering very rare

Whole-exome Sequencing Study of Hypospadias [PDF]
ABSTRACTWhile hypospadias is one of the most common male congenital disorders, the missing heritability contributed by rare variants with larger effects is poorly understood. To systematically explore the variant patterns in the developing of hypospadias, we performed whole exome sequencing (WES) in 191 severe hypospadias cohort and three trios ...
