    Trio-based whole exome sequencing in patients with suspected sporadic inborn errors of immunity: A retrospective cohort study

    Anne Hebert, Annet Simons ... Caspar I van der Made
    Systematic assessment of de novo variants in patients with sporadic inborn errors of immunity led to the identification of promising candidate variants in known and novel immune genes, supporting its implementation in the routine diagnostic evaluation of these patients.

    Two locus inheritance of non-syndromic midline craniosynostosis via rare SMAD6 and common BMP2 alleles

    Andrew T Timberlake, Jungmin Choi ... Richard P Lifton
    Epistatic interactions of rare loss of function mutations in SMAD6 and a common variant modifier near BMP2 are the most common cause of midline craniosynostosis in humans.

    A dystonia-like movement disorder with brain and spinal neuronal defects is caused by mutation of the mouse laminin β1 subunit, Lamb1

    Yi Bessie Liu, Ambika Tewari ... Kathleen J Sweadner
    A mouse with a defined mutation in an extracellular matrix protein that is expressed in selected neurons sheds light on circuit abnormalities producing transient hyperkinetic movements.

    Patient-specific iPSC-derived photoreceptor precursor cells as a means to investigate retinitis pigmentosa

    Budd A Tucker, Robert F Mullins ... Edwin M Stone
    Skin cells from a patient with retinitis pigmentosa have been used to generate induced pluripotent stem cells, which could potentially form the basis of new treatments for this disease.

    Recurrent gain of function mutation in calcium channel CACNA1H causes early-onset hypertension with primary aldosteronism

    Ute I Scholl, Gabriel Stölting ... Richard P Lifton
    A novel Mendelian disease featuring early-onset hypertension is caused by a recurrent gain of function mutation in CACNA1H, which encodes the voltage-gated calcium channel Cav3.2.

    Abnormal oxidative metabolism in a quiet genomic background underlies clear cell papillary renal cell carcinoma

    Jianing Xu, Ed Reznik ... A Ari Hakimi
    A distinct class of kidney tumors is characterized not by patterns of somatic mutations, but by a distinct metabolism.

    Quantifying concordant genetic effects of de novo mutations on multiple disorders

    Hanmin Guo, Lin Hou ... Qiongshi Lu
    EncoreDNM identifies abundant enrichment correlations across disorders for de novo mutations.

    A homozygous FANCM mutation underlies a familial case of non-syndromic primary ovarian insufficiency

    Baptiste Fouquet, Patrycja Pawlikowska ... Micheline Misrahi
    Bilallelic mutations of FANCM, a DNA-damage response gene whose heterozygous mutations predispose to breast cancer, are involved in a familial case of Primary Ovarian Insufficiency establishing a link between infertility and cancer.

    Common host variation drives malaria parasite fitness in healthy human red cells

    Emily R Ebel, Frans A Kuypers ... Elizabeth S Egan
    Human red blood cells from healthy donors display marked biophysical and genetic variation that impacts the growth of Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasites, outside of known disease alleles.
