This study identifies inactivating CSTF2 variants in males with intellectual disability and shows they disrupt intronic polyadenylation patterns, linking CSTF2 to neurodevelopmental disorders.

The paper identifies 3'UTR variants disrupting cleavage and polyadenylation as potential causes of undiagnosed rare disorders using deep learning on Genomics England data.

GenePy identifies potential missed biallelic diagnoses in the 100KGP by scoring variants and analyzing phenotypic overlaps, finding 14% of undiagnosed participants may have a missed diagnosis.

This study identifies genetic differences between pediatric and adult cardiomyopathy, finding more constrained variants in childhood cases and female patients.

The paper introduces MuAt, a deep learning model that learns representations of somatic mutations to predict tumour types and subtypes with high accuracy.

This study identifies TMEM63B variants in patients with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy and neurodegeneration, showing altered cation currents and hematological abnormalities.

The paper introduces DeNovoLOEUF, a method to identify diagnostic variants in genome sequencing data, achieving 96% positive predictive value and uncovering 39 missed diagnoses in the 100,000 Genomes Project.

The paper identifies novel Mendelian genes by analyzing mouse embryo lethality and linking them to human disease phenotypes and genetic variants.

The paper identifies an intermediate-effect variant in UMOD associated with chronic kidney disease risk and shows it has reduced disease severity compared to canonical ADTKD mutations.

This study uses whole-genome sequencing to identify regulatory and novel genic variants contributing to childhood cardiomyopathy.

The paper identifies gene-specific mutational signatures caused by replication errors and endogenous DNA damage using CRISPR-Cas9 knockouts and whole-genome sequencing.

The paper integrates gene essentiality data from human and mouse screens to classify genes into FUSIL categories, identifying developmental lethal genes associated with rare diseases.

The paper identifies 9 novel genetic loci, including low-frequency variants in TP53, associated with head circumference and intracranial volume in up to 46,000 individuals.

The paper annotates pseudogenes in the mouse genome and strains, finding similar overall characteristics to humans but distinct age distributions and transcriptional patterns.

This paper evaluates GRCh38 and de novo haploid assemblies, finding that GRCh38 remains superior for complex genomic regions and coding sequences despite improvements in newer assemblies.
