This study identifies ATRN and ATRNL1 as transmembrane adapters that recruit MGRN1 to ubiquitinate and degrade MC1R and MC4R, expanding the known substrate repertoire of MGRN1.

This study shows that AAV FOXG1 gene therapy improves behavioral deficits in a mouse model of FOXG1 syndrome with a Q84P mutation.

The paper shows that gene-teratogen interactions affect birth defect penetrance by altering Hedgehog signaling through the MMM complex and SMO degradation.

This study identifies a ubiquitin-based genetic mechanism linking Megf8 and Mgrn1 mutations to congenital heart defects and heterotaxy through altered Hedgehog signaling.
