Journal ArticleDOI

TTC21B contributes both causal and modifying alleles across the ciliopathy spectrum

TL;DR: It is shown that mutations in TTC21B, which encodes the retrograde intraflagellar transport protein IFT139, cause both isolated nephronophthisis and syndromic Jeune asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recurrent de novo mitochondrial DNA mutations in respiratory chain deficiency

TL;DR: This study supports the view that an efficient molecular screening should be based on an accurate identification of respiratory chain enzyme deficiency, and suggests NADH-oxidoreductase (complex I) deficient patients should be screened for Leigh or Leigh-like encephalopathy.
Journal ArticleDOI

The two novel MHC class II transactivators RFX5 and CIITA both control expression of HLA-DM genes

TL;DR: It is reported here that CIITA and RFX5, although operating at different levels of transcriptional control, are also both essential regulators of HLA-DMA and -DMB genes, true for both the constitutive and the inducible mode of DM gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Three new cases of late-onset cblC defect and review of the literature illustrating when to consider inborn errors of metabolism beyond infancy.

TL;DR: Newborn screening for the cblC defect might be of benefit especially for late-onset patients since treatment seems efficient when initiated before irreversible organ damage and in general, inborn errors of metabolisms should be considered in unexplained medical cases at any age, especially in patients with multisystemic disease.
