Neurodevelopmental Disorder Caused by Deletion of , a lncRNA Gene.

encodes a human long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) adjacent to , a coding gene in which de novo loss-of-function variants cause developmental and epileptic encephalopathy. Here, we report our findings in three unrelated children with a syndromic, early-onset neurodevelopmental disorder, each of whom had a de novo deletion in the locus. The children had severe encephalopathy, shared facial dysmorphisms, cortical atrophy, and cerebral hypomyelination - a phenotype that is distinct from the phenotypes of patients with haploinsufficiency.

Development and evaluation of a training curriculum to engage researchers on accessing and analyzing the All of Us data.

Objective: The All of Us Evenings with Genetics (EwG) Research Program at Baylor College of Medicine (BCM), funded to engage research scholars to work with the All of Us data, developed a training curriculum for the Researcher Workbench, the platform to access and analyze All of Us data. All of Us EwG developed the curriculum so that it could teach scholars regardless of their skills and background in programming languages and cloud computing. All of Us EwG delivered this curriculum at the first annual All of Us EwG Faculty Summit in May 2022.

Experiences in providing a community educational resource for the All of Us Researcher Workbench.

Objective: Educational offerings to fill the bioinformatics knowledge gap are a key component to enhancing access and use of health data from the All of Us Research Program. We developed a Train the Trainer-based, innovative training series including project-based learning, modular on-demand demonstrations, and unstructured tutorial time as a model for educational engagement in the All of Us community.

Materials And Methods: We highlight our training modules and content, with training survey data informing cycles of development in the creation of a 6-module training series with modular demonstrations.

Recessive loss-of-function variants in DPH1 identified as the molecular cause in a sibling pair previously diagnosed with Fine-Lubinsky syndrome.

Fine-Lubinsky syndrome is a rare clinically defined syndrome sometimes referred to as brachycephaly, deafness, cataract, microstomia, and impaired intellectual development syndrome. Here we provide a clinical and molecular update for a sibling pair diagnosed with Fine-Lubinsky syndrome. An extensive genetic work-up, including chromosomal microarray analysis and quad exome sequencing, was nondiagnostic.
