Clinical, biochemical and genetic characteristics of MOGS-CDG: a rare congenital disorder of glycosylation.

Purpose: To summarise the clinical, molecular and biochemical phenotype of mannosyl-oligosaccharide glucosidase-related congenital disorders of glycosylation (MOGS-CDG), which presents with variable clinical manifestations, and to analyse which clinical biochemical assay consistently supports diagnosis in individuals with bi-allelic variants in .

Methods: Phenotypic characterisation was performed through an international and multicentre collaboration. Genetic testing was done by exome sequencing and targeted arrays.

Haploinsufficiency of PRR12 causes a spectrum of neurodevelopmental, eye, and multisystem abnormalities.

Purpose: Proline Rich 12 (PRR12) is a gene of unknown function with suspected DNA-binding activity, expressed in developing mice and human brains. Predicted loss-of-function variants in this gene are extremely rare, indicating high intolerance of haploinsufficiency.

Methods: Three individuals with intellectual disability and iris anomalies and truncating de novo PRR12 variants were described previously.

Germline mutation in : a heterogeneous, multi-systemic developmental disorder characterized by transcriptional dysregulation.

germline variation in was recently reported to associate with a neurodevelopmental disorder. We report twelve individuals harboring putatively pathogenic or inherited variants in , detail their phenotypes, and map all known variants to the domain structure of and crystal structure of RNA polymerase II. Affected individuals were ascertained from a local data lake, pediatric genetics clinic, and an online community of families of affected individuals.

Phenotypic expansion of the BPTF-related neurodevelopmental disorder with dysmorphic facies and distal limb anomalies.

Neurodevelopmental disorder with dysmorphic facies and distal limb anomalies (NEDDFL), defined primarily by developmental delay/intellectual disability, speech delay, postnatal microcephaly, and dysmorphic features, is a syndrome resulting from heterozygous variants in the dosage-sensitive bromodomain PHD finger chromatin remodeler transcription factor BPTF gene. To date, only 11 individuals with NEDDFL due to de novo BPTF variants have been described. To expand the NEDDFL phenotypic spectrum, we describe the clinical features in 25 novel individuals with 20 distinct, clinically relevant variants in BPTF, including four individuals with inherited changes in BPTF.

Further delineation of Basel-Vanagaite-Smirin-Yosef syndrome: Report of three patients.

Basel-Vanagaite-Smirin-Yosef syndrome is a recently described autosomal recessive intellectual disability syndrome caused by variants in the MED25 gene. While it was originally identified in Brazil, it was further described in Israel by authors who are now the namesake of the condition. A 2018 publication further contributed to its delineation, but the patient's phenotype was complicated by a dual diagnosis.

A homozygous KAT2B variant modulates the clinical phenotype of ADD3 deficiency in humans and flies.

Recent evidence suggests that the presence of more than one pathogenic mutation in a single patient is more common than previously anticipated. One of the challenges hereby is to dissect the contribution of each gene mutation, for which animal models such as Drosophila can provide a valuable aid. Here, we identified three families with mutations in ADD3, encoding for adducin-γ, with intellectual disability, microcephaly, cataracts and skeletal defects.
