Identification of a Novel Genetic Mutation in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
(AHA 2025)
- "Genetic testing identified a variant of uncertain significance in exon 7 of the FHL1 gene (c.755G>A, heterozygous), resulting in a cysteine-to-tyrosine substitution at codon 252 (p.Cys252Tyr); and exon 43 of the ANK2 gene (c.11454C>A, heterozygous), leading to a serine-to-arginine substitution at codon 3818 (p.Ser3818Arg)...Given her arrhythmia history and family background, she is scheduled for ICD placement.We identified a novel FHL1 variant in an adolescent with HCM, highlighting the evolving genetic landscape beyond core sarcomeric genes. This underscores the need for accurate phenotyping, vigilant reporting, and ongoing re-evaluation of variants to inform risk stratification, especially in pediatric populations.Take-home Messages:Detailed case reporting of novel genetic variants identified in HCM and longitudinal follow-up are key to improving genetic interpretation and guiding individualized care."

Eliosin-an alternative product from the HmPKD1 locus is a component of endoplasmic reticulum mitochondria membrane contact sites.
(PubMed, PLoS One)
- "This PKD1 locus region in human adult kidney cDNA probed by several sets of primers and sequencing produces an alternative transcript with a transcriptional start site in intron 40 that undergoes exon 42 skipping but aligns with exon 43-46 conventional splicing of the HmPKD1 gene...Strikingly, exogenous Eliosin in immortalized ADPKD renal epithelial cells converts fragmented mitochondria populations to a filamentous shape. Our studies highlight the genomic complexity of the locus, a newly identified transcript and ERMCS protein, Eliosin with a role in mitochondria dynamics and potential impact in ADPKD progression."

Whole Exome Sequencing Identifies Novel Splicing Variants in the PTPRQ Gene and Their Mechanisms in Autosomal Recessive Non-Syndromic Hearing Loss.
(PubMed, J Otol)
- "Minigene assays and Sanger sequencing confirmed that the c.6603-3 T > G variant caused exon 43 skipping, resulting in a frameshift mutation (p.Ser2201ArgfsTer112)...This study identifies a novel compound heterozygous splicing variant in the PTPRQ gene in a Chinese family with DFNB84A, expanding the known spectrum of PTPRQ mutations. These findings enhance the understanding of PTPRQ-related hearing loss and may aid in early diagnosis, prevention, and therapeutic strategies."

Synergy between RNA editing and alternative splicing modulates the biological properties of the voltage-gated calcium channel CaV1.3.
(PubMed, J Biol Chem)
- "Alternative splicing of exon 43 within the CaV1.3 C-terminus produces long (CaV1.3L) and short (CaV1.343S) variants exhibiting distinct gating and pharmacological properties...Functional analysis revealed that A-to-I RNA editing markedly decreases current density and induces a depolarizing shift in the current window, aligning the edited short variant's properties with those of the long variant. Our findings suggest that A-to-I RNA editing serves as a physiological mechanism regulating the 'short' gating properties of the CaV1.343S variant and positions A-to-I RNA editing of CaV1.343S variant as a neuroprotective physiological mechanism that prevents Ca2+ overload, especially in neurons susceptible to Ca2+ toxicity."

Molecular Analysis of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia-X Syndrome and Development of a Pilot Panel for Analyzing Structural Variations with Long-Read Sequencing
(ENDO 2024)
- "Two patients carried heterozygous mutations p.S4175N in exon 43, which is an unclassified type... This study identified 8 patients with CAH-X syndrome carrying four different TNXA/TNXB chimeras by long-range PCR. Long-read sequencing emerged as a comprehensive and efficient method for the molecular analysis of CAH, especially for the identification of structural variations. Biallelic deletion of TNXB was associated with severe clinical manifestations."

Long-read sequencing improves the genetic diagnosis of retinitis pigmentosa by identifying an Alu retrotransposon insertion in the EYS gene.
(PubMed, Mob DNA)
- "To our knowledge, this is the first report of a mobile element insertion into the coding sequence of EYS, as a likely cause of arRP in a family. Our study highlights the value of LRS technology in characterizing and identifying hidden pathogenic SVs, such as retrotransposon insertions, whose contribution to the etiopathogenesis of rare diseases may be underestimated."

Eliosin, A Protein Encoded by a Transcript from the HmPKD Locus, Is a Component of Mitochondria-ER Contact Sites/Mitochondria-Associated Membranes (MAMs)
(KIDNEY WEEK 2023)
- "This transcript has a splice from the 3' end of exon 41 to the 5' end of exon 43 of the HmPKD1 gene... Eliosin is a 48 kDa protein that is a component of mitochondria-ER membrane contact sites, and it acts to displace dynamin-related protein-1 from MAMs. We conclude that Eliosin plays a role in altering the balance between mitochondria fusion and scission. This finding extends the HmPKD1 locus' role in mitochondria metabolic physiology."

Rapid and Reliable Quantification of Prime Editing Targeting Within the Porcine ABCA4 Gene Using a Bioluminescence Resonance Energy Transfer-Based Sensor.
(PubMed, Nucleic Acid Ther)
- "Using a custom-made bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET)-based editing sensor in HEK293 cells, we tested 27 different prime editing guide RNAs (pegRNAs) and additional 4 nicking guide RNAs (ngRNAs) with regard to their efficiency to induce sequences changes in exon 43 of the porcine ATP binding cassette subfamily A member 4 (ABCA4) gene that eliminate a mutagenic adenine frameshift insertion, which has been associated with STGD in humans. We identified nine working pegRNAs, and in combination with ngRNAs, we achieved a correction rate of up to ≈92% measured with the BRET-based reporter system. Our data prove the high efficiency of prime editors to correct mutations and highlight the importance of optimal ngRNA design, thus offering a promising editing tool to correct ABCA4 mutations in the disease context."

Two novel CACNA1F gene mutations cause two different phenotypes: Aland Eye Disease and incomplete Congenital Stationary Night Blindness.
(PubMed, Exp Eye Res)
- "In Patient 2 variant c.5156G > C localized in the donor's splicing site of exon 43 was identified...Clinical spectrum is more severe and resembles the AIED phenotype when the mutation affects the first part of the protein, while it is more similar to CSNB2 if the mutation is localized at the end of the protein. Genetic testing results to be an essential tool to provide more accurate diagnosis and prognosis in patients with inherited retinal degenerative disorders and could help, in the future, to develop more specific therapeutic strategies."
