Complex structural variation and nonsense variant cause -related disorder.

Homozygous variants have been previously described in two unrelated patients with a neurodevelopmental disorder with microcephaly, seizures and neonatal cholestasis. encodes a subunit that is unique to the heterotetrameric endosome-associated recycling protein (EARP) complex. The other subunits of the EARP complex, such as VPS51, VPS52 and VPS53, are also shared by the Golgi-associated retrograde protein complex.

Gain-of-function and loss-of-function variants in GRIA3 lead to distinct neurodevelopmental phenotypes.

AMPA (α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid) receptors (AMPARs) mediate fast excitatory neurotransmission in the brain. AMPARs form by homo- or heteromeric assembly of subunits encoded by the GRIA1-GRIA4 genes, of which only GRIA3 is X-chromosomal. Increasing numbers of GRIA3 missense variants are reported in patients with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD), but only a few have been examined functionally.

INPP4A-related genetic and phenotypic spectrum and functional relevance of subcellular targeting of INPP4A isoforms.

Type I inositol polyphosphate-4-phosphatase (INPP4A) belongs to the group of phosphoinositide phosphatases controlling proliferation, apoptosis, and endosome function by hydrolyzing phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate. INPP4A produces multiple transcripts encoding shorter and longer INPP4A isoforms with hydrophilic or hydrophobic C-terminus. Biallelic INPP4A truncating variants cause a spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders ranging from moderate intellectual disability to postnatal microcephaly with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy and (ponto)cerebellar hypoplasia.

Long-Term Antibody Response to SARS-CoV-2 in Children.

Almost 2 years into the pandemic and with vaccination of children significantly lagging behind adults, long-term pediatric humoral immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 are understudied. The C19.CHILD Hamburg (COVID-19 Child Health Investigation of Latent Disease) Study is a prospective cohort study designed to identify and follow up children and their household contacts infected in the early 2020 first wave of SARS-CoV-2.
