A Missense Mutation in the HMNT Gene Responsible for Autosomal Recessive Intellectual Disability in an Iranian Family with Consanguineous Marriage
Background and Aims: One of the neurotransmitters in the brain is Histamine which acts as several biological mechanism regulators like inflammation, gastric acid secretion, and neuromodulation. Inactivation of Histamine occurs by histamine N-methyltransferase (HNMT) enzyme. The HNMT transfers a methyl group from S-adenosyl-L-methionine to Histamine and is the main process for the termination of...
متن کاملWhole exome sequencing revealed a novel dystrophin-related protein-2 (DRP2) deletion in an Iranian family with symptoms of polyneuropathy
Objective(s): Charcot-Marie Tooth disease (CMT) is one of the main inherited causes of motor and sensory neuropathies with variable expressivity and age-of onset. Although more than 70 genes have been identified for CMT, more studies are needed to discover other genes involved in CMT. Introduction of whole exome sequencing (WES) to capture all the exons may help to fin...
متن کاملExome sequencing identifies a novel mutation of the GDI1 gene in a Chinese non-syndromic X-linked intellectual disability family
X-linked intellectual disability (XLID) has been associated with various genes. Diagnosis of XLID, especially for non-syndromic ones (NS-XLID), is often hampered by the heterogeneity of this disease. Here we report the case of a Chinese family in which three males suffer from intellectual disability (ID). The three patients shared the same phenotype: no typical clinical manifestation other than...
متن کاملWhole Exome Sequencing Revealed a Novel GJB1 Pathogenic Variant and a Rare BSCL2 Mutation in Two Iranian Large Pedigrees with Multiple Affected Cases of Charcot-Marie-Tooth
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is the most common hereditary neuropathy of the peripheral nervous system with a wide range of severity and age of onset. CMT patients share similar phenotypes which make it often impossible to identify the disease types based on clinical presentation and electrophysiological studies alone. In recent years, novel genetic diagnostic approaches such as whole exom...
متن کاملWhole-Genome Sequencing of a Clinically Isolated Antibiotic-Resistant Enterococcus faecium EntfacYE
Background and Objective: Enterococcal infections are considered the most common nosocomial infections. Nowadays, enterococci show high resistance to common antibiotics, especially vancomycin. Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium is one of the most common nosocomial infections, which is included in the World Health Organization priority pathogens list for research and development of new an...
