Mutations in ISPD cause Walker-Warburg syndrome and defective glycosylation of α-dystroglycan.

TL;DR: Results implicate ISPD in α-dystroglycan glycosylation in maintaining sarcolemma integrity in vertebrates and Knockdown of ispd in zebrafish recapitulates the human WWS phenotype with hydrocephalus, reduced eye size, muscle degeneration and hypoglycosylated α-dieselcan.
Journal ArticleDOI

MYCN haploinsufficiency is associated with reduced brain size and intestinal atresias in Feingold syndrome

TL;DR: It is shown that heterozygous mutations in the gene MYCN are present in Feingold syndrome, and all mutations are predicted to disrupt both the full-length protein and a new shortened MYCN isoform, suggesting that multiple aspects of early embryogenesis and postnatal brain growth in humans are tightly regulated by MYCN dosage.
