A new centric fusion translocation, rob(16;20), was discovered in a phenotypically normal bull. C-banding revealed the dicentric nature of this centric fusion. This bull is a descendant of a German red pied bull and a Czechoslovakian red pied cow. Its mother and 26 half-brothers had normal karyotypes, indicating that this translocation arose "de novo".

Introduction: The identification of type 1 diabetes at an early presymptomatic stage has clinical benefits. These include a reduced risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) at the clinical manifestation of the disease and a significant reduction in clinical symptoms. The European action for the Diagnosis of Early Non-clinical Type 1 diabetes For disease Interception (EDENT1FI) represents a pioneering effort to advance early detection of type 1 diabetes through public health screening.

Resolving complex duplication variants in autism spectrum disorder using long-read genome sequencing.

Article Synopsis
  • Rare structural variations, particularly copy number variants, are found in 5%-10% of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) families, often requiring advanced methods for precise detection and characterization of genomic breakpoints.
  • Using Oxford Nanopore's PromethION long-read genome sequencing, researchers successfully identified and characterized complex genomic rearrangements (CGRs) in five ASD-affected families, resolving all breakpoint junctions but leaving some genomic architectures unresolved.
  • The study revealed potential fusion genes due to duplications and identified a shared rearrangement in two families, suggesting a common ancestor, while also analyzing methylation patterns to understand gene activity related to these rearrangements.

Making sense of chromosome polymorphisms in two leptysmine grasshoppers.

Bull Entomol Res

October 2024

Grupo de Genética de la Estructura Poblacional, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The touchstone of the 'New Synthesis' was population cytogenetics -rather than genetics - due to the abundant polymorphic inversions in the genus Drosophila. Grasshoppers were not a material of choice because of their conservative karyotypes. However, nowadays seven species of Acrididae were described for polymorphic centric fusions, five of them in South-America.

Article Synopsis
  • An error grid is a tool that helps compare glucose levels measured by devices to see if they are correct and to identify any risks.
  • Experts created a new error grid called the DTS Error Grid that works for both blood glucose monitors (BGMs) and continuous glucose monitors (CGMs), organizing accuracy into five risk zones.
  • The results showed that the DTS Error Grid provides a clearer picture of how accurate these devices are and includes a separate matrix to evaluate how well CGMs track glucose trends over time.
