Identification of a de-novo variant of the MEGF10 gene associated with EMARDD.

Early-onset Myopathy, Areflexia, Respiratory Distress and Dysphagia (EMARDD) is a congenital neuromuscular disease with a progressive muscle weakness, respiratory failure, joint contractures, and scoliosis without any symptoms of functional brain anomalies caused by variants in the MEGF10 gene. Here, we report the clinical phenotype and genetic features of a Moroccan patient who carries a novel variant associated with EMARDD on the MEGF10 gene. The Whole Exome Sequencing analysis conducted on a 11 year old boy with respiratory and swallowing difficulties revealed the presence of the novel variant c.

Molecular analysis of genetic mutations in non-small cell lung cancer in Morocco.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a significant global health issue with diverse molecular profiles affecting treatment responses. Yet, NSCLC's molecular epidemiology in Morocco is largely unexplored. This study focuses on NSCLC genetic mutations, specifically in adenocarcinoma, among Moroccan patients to contribute to understanding NSCLC in this population.

A case report of two Moroccan patients with hereditary neurological disorders and molecular modeling study on the S72L de novo PMP22 variant.

Hereditary neurological disorders represent a wild group of hereditary illnesses affecting mainly the nervous system, the majority of which have a Mendelian inheritance pattern. Here we present the case of two Moroccan patients each affected by a different hereditary neurological disorder. In the first patient WES analysis revealed the presence of the p.

Prediction of the Impact of Deleterious Nonsynonymous Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms on the Human Gene: A Molecular Modeling Study.

gene encodes ribonucleoside-diphosphate reductase subunit M2 B, the p53-inducible small subunit (p53R2) of ribonucleotide reductase (RNR), an enzyme catalyzing dNTP synthesis for mitochondrial DNA. Defects in this gene may cause severe mitochondrial disease affecting mainly the nervous system. This study is aimed at examining the effect of deleterious nonsynonymous SNP (nsSNP) on the structure of the RRM2B protein, using a variety of prediction tools followed by a molecular modeling analysis.

Conservation of Moroccan manuscript papers aged 150, 200 and 800 years. Analysis by infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy energy dispersive spectrometry (SEM-EDS).

The preservation of manuscripts and archive materials is a serious problem for librarians and restorers. Paper manuscript is subjected to numerous degradation factors affecting their conservation state. This research represents an attempt to evaluate the conservation restoration process applied in Moroccan libraries, especially the alkaline treatment for strengthening weakened paper.
