Low‐Level Mosaicism in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC): Diagnostic and Clinical Implications From Two Novel Cases and Literature Review

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mosaicism is relatively common in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) but can be difficult to detect using routine diagnostic tests, particularly when the variant allele frequency (VAF) is low. We describe two cases of mosaic TSC diagnosed using an ultra‐deep sequencing approach in multiple tissues and review the literature about this topic in ...

Genome Sequencing in 19 Families With Bladder Exstrophy and Epispadias Complex Indicates Involvement of the ADGR‐Gene Family

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bladder exstrophy and epispadias complex (BEEC) is one of the most severe congenital malformations of the urogenital tract, significantly impacting continence, sexual function, and renal function. To date, the only recurrent genetic aberration identified is the 22q.11.2 microduplication, but several candidate regions and genes including ...

Prenatal Evaluation of RNU4‐2 Variants in Fetuses With Central Nervous System Anomalies

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fetal central nervous system (CNS) anomalies are among the most common congenital malformations, yet the overall prenatal diagnostic yield of current genetic testing remains below 40%. Variants in RNU4‐2, a non‐coding gene encoding the U4 small nuclear RNA (snRNA), have recently been linked to a novel highly recurrent dominant ...

Long term evolutionary responses to whole genome duplication

open access: yes, 2016
The study of species appearance and disappearance at the geological scales is the main topic of my doctoral work. The joint use of reconstructed phylogenies and of methods identifying changes in extinction and speciation rates through the ages deepens our knowledge of the mechanisms explaining current day biodiversity.

TARDBP (TDP‐43) Knock‐in Zebrafish Display a Late‐Onset Motor Phenotype and Loss of Large Spinal Cord Motor Neurons

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Mutations in TARDBP (encoding TDP‐43) are associated with the neurodegenerative disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and include familial missense mutations where there are a lack of models and mechanisms examining how they are pathogenic.

A Novel Transcriptional Slippage Mechanism Rescues Dystrophin Expression from a DMD Frameshift Variant

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Pathogenic DMD variants usually follow the reading‐frame rule: out‐of‐frame changes cause Duchenne muscular dystrophy, whereas in‐frame ones produce Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD). We report a 23‐year‐old man with BMD‐like weakness, calf hypertrophy, elevated creatine kinase, and dilated cardiomyopathy.
