EHMT2 as a Candidate Gene for an Autosomal Recessive Neurodevelopmental Syndrome.

Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD) comprise clinical conditions with high genetic heterogeneity and a notable enrichment of genes involved in regulating chromatin structure and function. The EHMT1/2 epigenetic complex plays a crucial role in repression of gene transcription in a highly tissue- and temporal-specific manner. Mutations resulting in heterozygous loss-of-function (LoF) of EHMT1 are implicated in Kleefstra syndrome 1 (KS1).

A Mutation in the Familial Case of Primary Lymphedema: A Report.

Lymphedema is a disorder that leads to excessive swelling due to lymphatic insufficiency, resulting in the accumulation of protein-rich interstitial fluid. Primary lymphedema predominantly impacts the lower extremities and is frequently linked to hereditary factors. This condition is known to be associated with variants in several genes, such as , , and .

A Cre-LoxP-based approach for combinatorial chromosome rearrangements in human HAP1 cells.

Alterations of human karyotype caused by chromosomal rearrangements are often associated with considerable phenotypic effects. Studying molecular mechanisms underlying these effects requires an efficient and scalable experimental model. Here, we propose a Cre-LoxP-based approach for the generation of combinatorial diversity of chromosomal rearrangements.
