Pediatric intracranial aneurysms (PIAs) are highly uncommon, with an incidence of <5% (0.17 to 4.6%) and <2% of PIA complicates into an aneurysmal hemorrhage.

Ninjurin-2 (NINJ2) is a close paralog of NINJ1 but cannot mediate PMR. Using cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM), we show that NINJ1 and NINJ2 both assemble into linear filaments that are hydrophobic on one side but hydrophilic on the other.

It is, thus, imperative to understand the genetic basis of these traits and deploy them in commercial hybrid breeding programs. The present study utilized a set of 15 diverse genotypes with TSW and OC ranging from 1.
