Patients usually present in early infancy with hypotonia and developmental delay and later exhibit intellectual disability (ID). The overall presentation is variable, however, and the emerging clinical picture is still evolving. A detailed phenotypic analysis of 34 XGS individuals revealed five core phenotypes (delayed motor milestones, speech delay, low muscle tone, ID, and hypotonia) in more than 80% of individuals and an additional 12 features that occurred more variably. Seizures and scoliosis were more frequently associated with truncations that arise before the midpoint of the protein although the occurrence of most features could not be predicted by the mutation position. Transient expression of wild type and different patient truncated AHDC1 protein forms in human cell lines revealed abnormal patterns of nuclear localization including a diffuse distribution of a short truncated form and nucleolar aggregation in mid-protein truncated forms. Overall, both the occurrence of variable phenotypes and the different distribution of the expressed protein reflect the heterogeneity of this syndrome.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/33644933?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sabo, Aniko</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Murdock, David</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dugan, Shannon</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Meng, Qingchang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gingras, Marie-Claude</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hu, Jianhong</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Muzny, Donna</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gibbs, Richard</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Community-based recruitment and exome sequencing indicates high diagnostic yield in adults with intellectual disability.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mol Genet Genomic Med</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mol Genet Genomic Med</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Adult</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Female</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genetic Testing</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Independent Living</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Intellectual Disability</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Male</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediator Complex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Membrane Proteins</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nuclear Proteins</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Patient Selection</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sensitivity and Specificity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tumor Suppressor Proteins</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Whole Exome Sequencing</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020 10</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">e1439</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;BACKGROUND: &lt;/b&gt;Establishing a genetic diagnosis for individuals with intellectual disability (ID) benefits patients and their families as it may inform the prognosis, lead to appropriate therapy, and facilitate access to medical and supportive services. Exome sequencing has been successfully applied in a diagnostic setting, but most clinical exome referrals are pediatric patients, with many adults with ID lacking a comprehensive genetic evaluation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;METHODS: &lt;/b&gt;Our unique recruitment strategy involved partnering with service and education providers for individuals with ID. We performed exome sequencing and analysis, and clinical variant interpretation for each recruited family.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;All five families enrolled in the study opted-in for the return of genetic results. In three out of five families exome sequencing analysis identified pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in KANSL1, TUSC3, and MED13L genes. Families discussed the results and any potential medical follow-up in an appointment with a board certified clinical geneticist.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSION: &lt;/b&gt;Our study suggests high yield of exome sequencing as a diagnostic tool in adult patients with ID who have not undergone comprehensive sequencing-based genetic testing. Research studies including an option of return of results through a genetic clinic could help minimize the disparity in exome diagnostic testing between pediatric and adult patients with ID.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/32767738?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sabo, Aniko</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mishra, Pamela</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dugan-Perez, Shannon</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Voruganti, V Saroja</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kent, Jack W</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kalra, Divya</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cole, Shelley A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Comuzzie, Anthony G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Muzny, Donna M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gibbs, Richard A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Butte, Nancy F</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Exome sequencing reveals novel genetic loci influencing obesity-related traits in Hispanic children.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Obesity (Silver Spring)</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Obesity (Silver Spring)</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Adolescent</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ATPases Associated with Diverse Cellular Activities</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Body Mass Index</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Body Weight</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Child</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Child, Preschool</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cohort Studies</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Exome</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genetic Loci</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome-Wide Association Study</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hispanic or Latino</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Membrane Proteins</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pediatric Obesity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Risk Factors</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sequence Analysis, DNA</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Software</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Waist Circumference</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Young Adult</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2017</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2017 Jul</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">25</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1270-1276</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;OBJECTIVE: &lt;/b&gt;To perform whole exome sequencing in 928 Hispanic children and identify variants and genes associated with childhood obesity.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;METHODS: &lt;/b&gt;Single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) were identified from Illumina whole exome sequencing data using integrated read mapping, variant calling, and an annotation pipeline (Mercury). Association analyses of 74 obesity-related traits and exonic variants were performed using SeqMeta software. Rare autosomal variants were analyzed using gene-based association analyses, and common autosomal variants were analyzed at the SNV level.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;(1) Rare exonic variants in 10 genes and 16 common SNVs in 11 genes that were associated with obesity traits in a cohort of Hispanic children were identified, (2) novel rare variants in peroxisome biogenesis factor 1 (PEX1) associated with several obesity traits (weight, weight z score, BMI, BMI z score, waist circumference, fat mass, trunk fat mass) were discovered, and (3) previously reported SNVs associated with childhood obesity were replicated.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSIONS: &lt;/b&gt;Convergence of whole exome sequencing, a family-based design, and extensive phenotyping discovered novel rare and common variants associated with childhood obesity. Linking PEX1 to obesity phenotypes poses a novel mechanism of peroxisomal biogenesis and metabolism underlying the development of childhood obesity.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28508493?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record></records></xml>
