TL;DR: This study, the largest published so far, has revealed additional mutations in 23 genes previously implicated in intellectual disability or related neurological disorders, as well as single, probably disease-causing variants in 50 novel candidate genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Results indicate that the a2 subunit of the proton pump has an important role in Golgi function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recessive Robinow syndrome, allelic to dominant brachydactyly type B, is caused by mutation of ROR2
Ali R. Afzal,Anna Rajab,Christiane Fenske,Michael Oldridge,N Elanko,Eliana Ternes-Pereira,Beyhan Tüysüz,Victoria Murday,Michael A. Patton,Andrew O.M. Wilkie,Steve Jeffery +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported homozygous missense mutations in both intracellular and extracellular domains of ROR2 in affected individuals from three unrelated consanguineous families, and a nonsense mutation that removes the tyrosine kinase domain and all subsequent 3' regions of the gene in 14 patients from 7 families from Oman.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The authors' findings link mutations in PYCR1 to altered mitochondrial function and progeroid changes in connective tissues, which led to epidermal hypoplasia and blistering that was accompanied by a massive increase of apoptosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fatal Cardiac Arrhythmia and Long-QT Syndrome in a New Form of Congenital Generalized Lipodystrophy with Muscle Rippling (CGL4) Due to PTRF-CAVIN Mutations
Anna Rajab,Volker Straub,Liza J McCann,Dominik Seelow,Raymonda Varon,Rita Barresi,Anne Schulze,Barbara Lucke,Susanne Lützkendorf,Mohsen Karbasiyan,Sebastian Bachmann,Simone Spuler,Markus Schuelke +12 more
TL;DR: PTRF-CAVIN deficiency presents the phenotypic spectrum caused by a quintessential lack of functional caveolae, and is essential for Caveolae biogenesis.
