Differences in 5’untranslated regions highlight the importance of translational regulation of dosage sensitive genes

TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigate the role of 5'UTR length and complexity in post-transcriptional regulation, and show that 5'UTR length correlates with gene dosage sensitivity.

Insights into dispersed duplications and complex structural mutations from whole genome sequencing 706 families

TL;DR: A new way to find and characterize genome structural variation by utilizing identity-by-descent (IBD) relationships between siblings together with high-precision measurements of segmental copy number is described, showing that dispersed duplications and mutations can be identified by looking for copy number variants that do not follow these expected inheritance patterns.

The penetrance of rare variants in cardiomyopathy-associated genes: a cross-sectional approach to estimate penetrance for secondary findings

TL;DR: In this paper , a large-scale analysis of patients referred for diagnostic sequencing for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM; 10,400 cases, 1,340 variants) and dilated cardiocyopathy (DCM; 2,564 cases, 665 variants) using a cross-sectional approach comparing allele frequencies against reference populations is presented.
