CLN8 disease caused by large genomic deletions
BACKGROUND The presence of deletions can complicate genetic diagnosis of autosomal recessive disease. METHOD The DNA of patients was analyzed in a diagnostic setting. RESULTS We present three unrelated patients each carrying deletions that encompass the 37 kb CLN8 gene and discuss their phenotype. Two of the cases were hemizygous for a mutant allele - their deletions unmasked a mutation in ...
متن کاملLarge-scale genomic deletions mediated by CRISPR/Cas9 system
Owing to its simplicity of manipulation and high efficiency, the CRISPR/Cas9 technology has already been achieved as a robust genome engineering tool for generating gene mutations, multiple-gene knockout and knock-in in various species. However, tissues and genomic mosaicism have been widely reported in the gentically modified animals generated from zygotes that were coinjected with Cas9 mRNA a...
متن کاملLarge Genomic Deletions in CACNA1A Cause Episodic Ataxia Type 2
Episodic ataxia (EA) syndromes are heritable diseases characterized by dramatic episodes of imbalance and incoordination. EA type 2 (EA2), the most common and the best characterized subtype, is caused by mostly nonsense, splice site, small indel, and sometimes missense mutations in CACNA1A. Direct sequencing of CACNA1A fails to identify mutations in some patients with EA2-like features, possibl...
متن کاملLarge genomic deletions and duplications in the BRCA1 gene identified by a novel quantitative method.
We applied a novel method to detect single or multiple exon deletions and amplifications in the BRCA1 gene. The test, called multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA), uses probes designed to hybridize adjacently to the target sequence. After ligation, the joined probes are amplified and quantified. Our two diagnostic laboratories have tested in the recent years 805 families by co...
متن کاملMinimizing distortion caused by welding, by sequencing optimization in a large steel panel
Increasingly, Welding is used in industry for assembled various products, such as ships, cars, trains and bridges. Welding distortion often results such as lack of accuracy during assembly and will have increases manufacturing costs. So, predict and reduce welding distortion is very important to improve the quality of welded structures. In this study, firstly, a prediction method of welding di...
