Exploring Genes and Phenotypes Within Chromosomal Regions Using OMIM's GeneScout.

Structural variation in genomes, such as copy number variants (CNVs), is under scrutiny for its contribution to phenotypic expression and evolution. Regions of homozygosity (ROH) are ripe for phenotype-gene discovery. Determining the genes and related phenotypes within genomic regions is key to studying potential functional and phenotypic consequences.

Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM®): Victor McKusick's magnum opus.

Victor McKusick's many contributions to medicine are legendary, but his magnum opus is Mendelian Inheritance in Man (MIM), his catalog of Mendelian phenotypes and their associated genes. The catalog, originally published in 1966 in book form, became available on the internet as Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM®) in 1987. The first of 12 editions of MIM included 1486 entries; this number has increased to over 25,000 entries in OMIM as of April 2021, which demonstrates the growth of knowledge about Mendelian phenotypes and their genes through the years.

Viewing Victor McKusick's legacy through the lens of his bibliography.

Victor McKusick's contributions to the field of medical genetics are legendary and include his contributions as a mentor, as creator of Mendelian Inheritance in Man (now Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man [OMIM®]), and as a leader in the field of medical genetics. McKusick's full bibliography includes 772 publications. Here we review the 453 papers authored by McKusick and indexed in PubMed, from his earliest paper published in the New England Journal of Medicine in 1949 to his last paper published in American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A in 2008.

OMIM.org: leveraging knowledge across phenotype-gene relationships.

For over 50 years Mendelian Inheritance in Man has chronicled the collective knowledge of the field of medical genetics. It initially cataloged the known X-linked, autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant inherited disorders, but grew to be the primary repository of curated information on both genes and genetic phenotypes and the relationships between them. Each phenotype and gene is given a separate entry assigned a stable, unique identifier.
