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

open access: yesAmerican 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 Novel Splice Variant in ERGIC1 Causes Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita—Characterization Using Urine‐Derived Cells

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is defined as the presence of joint contractures affecting at least two body regions at birth. Three different ERGIC1 variants have been reported in individuals with AMC. Here, we report on a 16‐year‐old male with a homozygous ERGIC1 c.250+1G>A variant that was classified as a variant of uncertain ...
