Nanopore long-read sequencing facilitates accurate diagnosis of KMT2B-related dystonia

Diagnosis of KMT2B-related dystonia remains challenging due to the high prevalence of variants of uncertain significance and technological constraint of short-read pipelines. To overcome these limitations, we integrated nanopore-based long-read sequencing with a validated KMT2B-episignature classifier to perform simult...

Pathogenicity of NUSAP1 Variants Is Defined by NMD-Escape: Evidence From Two Novel Cases and Systematic Population-Based Variant Analysis.

A critical region at the 3' region of NUSAP1 is delineated, where nonsense variants introduce a premature termination codon and escape NMD, which is absent from healthy controls, while frameshift variants producing C-terminal elongations appear tolerated.

Motor coordination and behavioural deficits in a mouse model of KMT2B-related dystonia.

INTRODUCTION Pathogenic variants in KMT2B cause early-onset dystonia, but a mouse model that has undergone comprehensive, dystonia-oriented phenotyping is lacking. METHODS We conducted detailed phenotyping on heterozygous Kmt2b constitutive knockout mice and wild-type littermates, assessing growth, neurobehavioural t...

Resolving Complex Structural Variants in Undiagnosed Rare Movement Disorders via Multimodal Genomics and Multi-omics.

The findings underscore the diagnostic potential of integrated long-read and multi-omic approaches for complex structural variant characterization, while illustrating persistent limitations of automated pipelines and highlighting unpredictable relationships between genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic findings.

Splice effect of a synonymous variant in AP4B1: multiomics approach establishes the diagnosis in two sisters with spastic paraplegia

The identification of biallelic causative variants in AP4B1 established the diagnosis of monogenic “Spastic paraplegia 47, autosomal recessive” while the initial hypothesis of digenic inheritance was refuted.
