We report an 18-gestational-week fetus with oligohydramnios, orofacial clefting, bilateral multicystic kidneys and the Dandy-Walker malformation. Characteristic craniofacial features include a turricephalic prominent forehead, hypertelorism, low-set ears, a flat nasal bridge, mid-face hypoplasia, bilateral cleft lip and palate, and a thick nuchal fold. Array-comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) analysis demonstrated a 12Mb deletion of 6p24.1-->pter.

First report of hypoplastic left heart syndrome in 3p- syndrome and review of candidate genes.

Objective: 3p deletion syndrome is a rare monosomal disease that encompasses deletions throughout the short arm of chromosome 3. It is often in the distal region (3p25-pter), but variations in breakpoints and a complex clinical manifestation exist, with congenital heart defects being considered rare. We present the first case of hypoplastic left heart syndrome and minor dysmorphic features associated with 3p- syndrome.

Septal defects and patent ductus arteriosus are among the most common defects reported in the literature.
Case: We reported on a case with a complex congenital cardiac defect, dysmorphic facial features, cat-like cry, hypotonia, hyporeflexia, weak swallowing and sucking, limb anomalies, and bilateral undescended testicles.

Crosstalk regulation is widespread in species. Elucidating the influence of a specific regulator on target biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) and cell metabolism is crucial for strain improvement through regulatory protein engineering. PteF and PteR are two regulators that control the biosynthesis of filipin, which competes for building blocks with avermectins in .

Structural rearrangements of chromosome 4p gives rise to a group of rare genomic disorders that mainly result in two different clinical entities: Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS) and partial 4p trisomy. The severity of the phenotype depends on the size of the deletion or locus duplication. Here, we present two unrelated individuals with a copy number variation of chromosome 4p.

Background: Copy-number variants (CNVs) drive many neurodevelopmental-related disorders. Although many neurodevelopmental-related CNVs can give rise to widespread phenotypes, it is necessary to identify the major genes contributing to phenotypic presentation. Copy-number variations in chromosome 6, such as independent 6p deletion and 6p duplication, have been reported in several live-born infants and present widespread abnormalities such as intellectual disability, growth deficiency, developmental delay, and multiple dysmorphic facial features.
