Whole‐exome sequencing as a diagnostic tool for distal renal tubular acidosis

Jornal de Pediatria (Versão em Português), 2015
Objective: Distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) is characterized by metabolic acidosis due to impaired renal acid excretion. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the genetic diagnosis of four children with dRTA through use of whole‐exome sequencing ...

An Adult Presentation of KIF11‐Related MCLID Syndrome: Case Report and 40‐Year Follow‐Up

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in KIF11 are linked to autosomal dominant syndromes with microcephaly, chorioretinopathy, lymphedema, and intellectual disability (MCLID), though adult presentations remain underreported. We report a 42‐year‐old female presenting with a de novo single‐amino acid in‐frame deletion in the KIF11 gene (c.1294_1296del; p ...

Diagnostic value of partial exome sequencing in developmental disorders.

PLoS ONE, 2018
Although intellectual disability is one of the major indications for genetic counselling, there are no homogenous diagnostic algorithms for molecular testing. While whole exome sequencing is increasingly applied, we questioned whether analyzing a partial

Exome Sequencing Uncovers Phenotypic and Genotypic Heterogeneity in 196 Indian Families Evaluated for Autoinflammatory Disorders

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autoinflammatory disorders (AIDs) are a clinically heterogeneous group of inborn errors of immunity primarily caused by dysregulation in the innate immune system. Clinical diagnosis is often challenging due to clinical heterogeneity and the overlapping phenotypes with other inborn errors of immunity and monogenic conditions that mimic AIDs ...

A Rare Form of Microcephalic Primordial Dwarfism due to NSMCE2 Deficiency (Seckel Syndrome Type 10): A Report of Macular Involvement

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biallelic variants in NSMCE2 (MMS21), which encodes the SUMO E3 ligase subunit of the SMC5/6 chromatin‐maintenance complex, have recently been implicated in microcephalic primordial dwarfism (MPD), corresponding to Seckel syndrome type 10 (OMIM #617246).

A Novel Constitutional TUBB Variant Associated With Familial Malformations of Cortical Development

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Most pathogenic tubulin variants arise de novo in sporadic patients, causing severe brain malformations and significant neurodevelopmental impairment. The resulting reproductive disadvantage typically prevents these mutations from being transmitted to offspring.

Severe Headbanging Responsive to Levodopa in a Child With FOXP1 Syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report a 9‐year‐old female with FOXP1 syndrome due to a de novo in‐frame deletion in the FOXP1 gene. The child has a severe neurodevelopmental disorder including global developmental delay and autism spectrum disorder. At age 2, she developed severe headbanging, which was progressive and did not respond to multidisciplinary, behavioral ...

First Report of Uniparental Isodisomy of Chromosome 15 Revealing Angelman Syndrome and Microphthalmia Associated With a Novel Homozygous ALDH1A3 Variant

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Paternal isodisomy of chromosome 15 (iUPD15) is a recognized cause of Angelman syndrome (AS), accounting for approximately 2%–5% of cases. Additionally, another recognized consequence of iUPD is the unmasking of autosomal recessive disorders. However, reports of recessive disorders resulting from iUPD15 remain scarce in the literature.

Patient and Family Reported Clinical Picture of IRF2BPL‐Related Disorders

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT IRF2BPL‐related disorder is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by heterozygous variants in the IRF2BPL (Interferon Regulatory Factor 2 Binding Protein‐Like) gene. The few reports available in the literature suggest that common symptoms include developmental delay, intellectual disability, and developmental regression.

Whole exome sequencing analysis identifies genes for alcohol consumption

Nature Communications
Alcohol consumption is a heritable behavior seriously endangers human health. However, genetic studies on alcohol consumption primarily focuses on common variants, while insights from rare coding variants are lacking.
