Genetic diagnosis by whole exome capture and massively parallel DNA sequencing

TL;DR: A method for whole-exome sequencing coupling Roche/NimbleGen whole exome arrays to the Illumina DNA sequencing platform is reported, demonstrating the ability to capture approximately 95% of the targeted coding sequences with high sensitivity and specificity for detection of homozygous and heterozygous variants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutations in ATP6N1B, encoding a new kidney vacuolar proton pump 116-kD subunit, cause recessive distal renal tubular acidosis with preserved hearing.

TL;DR: A new kidney-specific proton pump 116-kD accessory subunit that is highly expressed in proton-secreting cells in the distal nephron is identified, and its essential role in normal vectorial acid transport into the urine by the kidney is illustrated.

Exome Capture Reveals ZNF423 and CEP164 Mutations, Linking Renal Ciliopathies to DNA Damage Response Signaling

TL;DR: It is shown that knockdown of CEP164 or ZNF423 causes sensitivity to DNA damaging agents and that cep164 knockdown in zebrafish results in dysregulated DDR and an NPHP-RC phenotype, and these findings link degenerative diseases of the kidney and retina, disorders of increasing prevalence, to mechanisms of DDR.
