We report twelve individuals harboring putatively pathogenic  or inherited variants in , detail their phenotypes, and map all known variants to the domain structure of  and crystal structure of RNA polymerase II. Affected individuals were ascertained from a local data lake, pediatric genetics clinic, and an online community of families of affected individuals. These include six affected by  missense variants (including one previously reported individual), four clinical laboratory samples affected by missense variation with unknown inheritance-with yeast functional assays further supporting altered function-one affected by a  in-frame deletion, and one affected by a C-terminal frameshift variant inherited from a largely asymptomatic mother. Recurrently observed phenotypes include ataxia, joint hypermobility, short stature, skin abnormalities, congenital cardiac abnormalities, immune system abnormalities, hip dysplasia, and short Achilles tendons. We report a significantly higher occurrence of epilepsy (8/12, 66.7%) than previously reported (3/15, 20%) (p value = 0.014196; chi-square test) and a lower occurrence of hypotonia (8/12, 66.7%) than previously reported (14/15, 93.3%) (p value = 0.076309). -related developmental disorders likely represent a spectrum of related, multi-systemic developmental disorders, driven by distinct mechanisms,

whole-genome sequencing for studies of human genetics is to interrogate all forms of variation, including single-nucleotide variants, small insertion or deletion (indel) variants and structural variants. However, tools and resources for the study of structural variants have lagged behind those for smaller variants. Here we used a scalable pipeline to map and characterize structural variants in 17,795 deeply sequenced human genomes. We publicly release site-frequency data to create the largest, to our knowledge, whole-genome-sequencing-based structural variant resource so far. On average, individuals carry 2.9 rare structural variants that alter coding regions; these variants affect the dosage or structure of 4.2 genes and account for 4.0-11.2% of rare high-impact coding alleles. Using a computational model, we estimate that structural variants account for 17.2% of rare alleles genome-wide, with predicted deleterious effects that are equivalent to loss-of-function coding alleles; approximately 90% of such structural variants are noncoding deletions (mean 19.1 per genome). We report 158,991 ultra-rare structural variants and show that 2% of individuals carry ultra-rare megabase-scale structural variants, nearly half of which are balanced or complex rearrangements. Finally, we infer the dosage sensitivity of genes and noncoding elements, and reveal trends that relate to element class and conservation. This work will help to guide the analysis and interpretation of structural variants in the era of whole-genome sequencing.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7814</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/32460305?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%">Yin, Jiani</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chun, Chun-An</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zavadenko, Nikolay N</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pechatnikova, Natalia L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Naumova, Oxana Yu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Doddapaneni, Harsha V</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hu, Jianhong</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Muzny, Donna M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Schaaf, Christian P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Grigorenko, Elena L</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Next Generation Sequencing of 134 Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Regression.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genes (Basel)</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genes (Basel)</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Autism Spectrum Disorder</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%">Disease Progression</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Female</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gene Expression Regulation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genetic Markers</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genetic Predisposition to Disease</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">High-Throughput Nucleotide Sequencing</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Infant</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Male</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mutation</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 07 25</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11</style></volume><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Approximately 30% of individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) experience developmental regression, the etiology of which remains largely unknown.

KIF1A dysfunction has been associated with several Mendelian disorders with a spectrum of overlapping phenotypes, ranging from spastic paraplegia to intellectual disability. We present a novel pathogenic in-frame deletion in the KIF1A molecular motor domain inherited by two affected siblings from an unaffected mother with apparent germline mosaicism. We identified eight additional cases with heterozygous, pathogenic KIF1A variants ascertained from a local data lake. Our data provide evidence for the expansion of KIF1A-associated phenotypes to include hip subluxation and dystonia as well as phenotypes observed in only a single case: gelastic cataplexy, coxa valga, and double collecting system. We review the literature and suggest that KIF1A dysfunction is better understood as a single neuromuscular disorder with variable involvement of other organ systems than a set of discrete disorders converging at a single locus.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/32935419?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%">Chiang, Theodore</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Liu, Xiuping</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Wu, Tsung-Jung</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hu, Jianhong</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sedlazeck, Fritz J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">White, Simon</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Schaid, Daniel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Andrade, Mariza de</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jarvik, Gail P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Crosslin, David</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stanaway, Ian</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Carrell, David S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Connolly, John J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hakonarson, Hakon</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Groopman, Emily E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gharavi, Ali G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fedotov, Alexander</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bi, Weimin</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Leduc, Magalie S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Murdock, David R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jiang, Yunyun</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Meng, Linyan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Eng, Christine M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Wen, Shu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yang, Yaping</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Muzny, Donna M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Boerwinkle, Eric</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Salerno, William</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Venner, Eric</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gibbs, Richard A</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Atlas-CNV: a validated approach to call single-exon CNVs in the eMERGESeq gene panel.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genet Med</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genet.

The quality of exonic CNV calls is assessed by C-scores (Z-like scores) using thresholds derived from gold standard samples and simulation studies. We integrate an ExonQC threshold to lower FDR and compare performance with alternate software (VisCap).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;Thirteen CNVs were used as a truth set to validate Atlas-CNV and compared with VisCap. We demonstrated FDR reduction in validation, simulation, and 10,926 eMERGESeq samples without sensitivity loss. Sixty-four multiexon and 29 single-exon CNVs with high C-scores were assessed by Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification (MLPA).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSION: &lt;/b&gt;Atlas-CNV is validated as a method to identify exonic CNVs in targeted sequencing data generated in the clinical laboratory. The ExonQC and C-score assignment can reduce FDR (identification of targets with high variance) and improve calling accuracy of single-exon CNVs respectively. We propose guidelines and criteria to identify high confidence single-exon CNVs.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30890783?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%">Posey, Jennifer E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">O'Donnell-Luria, Anne H</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chong, Jessica X</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Harel, Tamar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jhangiani, Shalini N</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Coban Akdemir, Zeynep H</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Buyske, Steven</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pehlivan, Davut</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Carvalho, Claudia M B</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Baxter, Samantha</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sobreira, Nara</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Liu, Pengfei</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Wu, Nan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rosenfeld, Jill A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kumar, Sushant</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Avramopoulos, Dimitri</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">White, Janson J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Doheny, Kimberly F</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Witmer, P Dane</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Boehm, Corinne</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sutton, V Reid</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Muzny, Donna M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Boerwinkle, Eric</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Günel, Murat</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nickerson, Deborah A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mane, Shrikant</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MacArthur, Daniel G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gibbs, Richard A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hamosh, Ada</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lifton, Richard P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Matise, Tara C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rehm, Heidi L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gerstein, Mark</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bamshad, Michael J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Valle, David</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lupski, James R</style></author></authors><translated-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Centers for Mendelian Genomics</style></author></translated-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Insights into genetics, human biology and disease gleaned from family based genomic studies.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genet Med</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genet.

Technical advances to assess rare variation genome-wide, particularly exome sequencing (ES), enabled establishment in the United States of the National Institutes of Health (NIH)-supported Centers for Mendelian Genomics (CMGs) and have facilitated collaborative studies resulting in novel &quot;disease gene&quot; discoveries. Pedigree-based genomic studies and rare variant analyses in families with suspected Mendelian conditions have led to the elucidation of hundreds of novel disease genes and highlighted the impact of de novo mutational events, somatic variation underlying nononcologic traits, incompletely penetrant alleles, phenotypes with high locus heterogeneity, and multilocus pathogenic variation. Herein, we highlight CMG collaborative discoveries that have contributed to understanding both rare and common diseases and discuss opportunities for future discovery in single-locus Mendelian disorder genomics. Phenotypic annotation of all human genes; development of bioinformatic tools and analytic methods; exploration of non-Mendelian modes of inheritance including reduced penetrance, multilocus variation, and oligogenic inheritance; construction of allelic series at a locus; enhanced data sharing worldwide; and integration with clinical genomics are explored. Realizing the full contribution of rare disease research to functional annotation of the human genome, and further illuminating human biology and health, will lay the foundation for the Precision Medicine Initiative.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30655598?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%">Sanghvi, Rashesh V</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Buhay, Christian J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Powell, Bradford C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tsai, Ellen A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dorschner, Michael O</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hong, Celine S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lebo, Matthew S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sasson, Ariella</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hanna, David S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">McGee, Sean</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bowling, Kevin M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cooper, Gregory M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gray, David E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lonigro, Robert J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dunford, Andrew</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brennan, Christine A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cibulskis, Carrie</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Walker, Kimberly</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Carneiro, Mauricio O</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sailsbery, Joshua</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hindorff, Lucia A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Robinson, Dan R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Santani, Avni</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sarmady, Mahdi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rehm, Heidi L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biesecker, Leslie G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nickerson, Deborah A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hutter, Carolyn M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Garraway, Levi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Muzny, Donna M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Wagle, Nikhil</style></author></authors><translated-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NHGRI Clinical Sequencing Exploratory Research (CSER) Consortium</style></author></translated-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Characterizing reduced coverage regions through comparison of exome and genome sequencing data across 10 centers.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genet Med</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genet.

In this report, we propose a definition for reduced coverage regions and describe a set of standards for variant calling in clinical sequencing applications.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;METHODS: &lt;/b&gt;To enable sequencing centers to assess the regions of poor sequencing quality in their own data, we optimized and used a tool (ExCID) to identify reduced coverage loci within genes or regions of particular interest. We used this framework to examine sequencing data from 500 patients generated in 10 projects at sequencing centers in the National Human Genome Research Institute/National Cancer Institute Clinical Sequencing Exploratory Research Consortium.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;This approach identified reduced coverage regions in clinically relevant genes, including known clinically relevant loci that were uniquely missed at individual centers, in multiple centers, and in all centers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSION: &lt;/b&gt;This report provides a process road map for clinical sequencing centers looking to perform similar analyses on their data.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></issue><custom1><style

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.

The phenotypic similarity between molecularly diagnosed pairs of diseases was calculated with the use of terms from the Human Phenotype Ontology.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;A molecular diagnosis was rendered for 2076 of 7374 patients (28.2%); among these patients, 101 (4.9%) had diagnoses that involved two or more disease loci. We also analyzed parental samples, when available, and found that de novo variants accounted for 67.8% (61 of 90) of pathogenic variants in autosomal dominant disease genes and 51.7% (15 of 29) of pathogenic variants in X-linked disease genes; both variants were de novo in 44.7% (17 of 38) of patients with two monoallelic variants. Causal copy-number variants were found in 12 patients (11.9%) with multiple diagnoses. Phenotypic similarity scores were significantly lower among patients in whom the phenotype resulted from two distinct mendelian disorders that affected different organ systems (50 patients) than among patients with disorders that had overlapping phenotypic features (30 patients) (median score, 0.21 vs. 0.36; P=1.77×10).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSIONS: &lt;/b&gt;In our study, we found multiple molecular diagnoses in 4.9% of cases in which whole-exome sequencing was informative. Our results show that structured clinical ontologies can be used to determine the degree of overlap between two mendelian diseases in the same patient; the diseases can be distinct or overlapping. Distinct disease phenotypes affect different organ systems, whereas overlapping disease phenotypes are more likely to be caused by two genes encoding proteins that interact within the same pathway.
