Journal ArticleDOI

MID1, mutated in Opitz syndrome, encodes an ubiquitin ligase that targets phosphatase 2A for degradation.

TL;DR: It is shown that mutation of MID1 leads to a marked accumulation of the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2Ac), a central cellular regulator, which causes hypophosphorylation of MAPs, a pathological mechanism consistent with the OS phenotype.
Journal Article

Elevated Levels of Rad51 Recombination Protein in Tumor Cells

TL;DR: It is concluded that the increases in Rad51 protein and nuclear foci formation in tumor cells are the result of transcriptional up-regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Opitz syndrome gene product, MID1, associates with microtubules

TL;DR: It is shown here that MID1 is a microtubule-associated protein that influences microtubules dynamics in MID1-overexpressing cells, and this observation is confirmed by demonstrating a colocalization of MID1 and tubulin in subcellular fractions and the association of endogenous MID1 withmicrotubules after in vitro assembly.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetics of intellectual disability in consanguineous families

TL;DR: This study, the largest of its kind published to date, illustrates that high-throughput DNA sequencing in consanguineous families is a superior strategy for elucidating the thousands of hitherto unknown gene defects underlying AR-ID, and it sheds light on their prevalence.
Journal ArticleDOI

GPR30 estrogen receptor agonists induce mechanical hyperalgesia in the rat

TL;DR: It is suggested that estrogen acts acutely at GPR30 in nociceptors to produce mechanical hyperalgesia.
