RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is a powerful tool in diagnosing Mendelian disorders, but the optimized sequencing depth for this technology has not yet been determined. In a new study published in the ...
Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have tested the feasibility of using human cell transdifferentiation with RNA sequencing to facilitate diagnoses of Mendelian disorders. The approach ...
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a genetic eye disorder affecting around one in 5,000 people worldwide. It typically begins with ...
Study focused on ‘Goldilocks Gene’ CHD2 that causes autism and epilepsy Deletion of long non-coding RNA CHASERR produces too much CHD2 protein in the cell, leaving patients wheelchair-bound, nonverbal ...
Researchers from Radboud university medical center and University of Basel have discovered new genetic causes of inherited ...
The inactivation or deletion of the gene CHD2 and its product is associated with pediatric neurodevelopment disorders and pediatric epilepsy. But too much CHD2 can also cause problems—and the balance ...
