Open AccessDeletion of exon 4 in LAMA2 is the most frequent mutation in Chinese patients with laminin α2-related muscular dystrophy
Although recessive mutations in LAMA2 are already known to cause laminin α2-related muscular dystrophy, a rare neuromuscular disorder, large deletions or duplications within this gene are not well-characterized. ...

Identification of likely pathogenic and known variants in TSPEAR, LAMB3, BCOR, and WNT10A in four Turkish families with tooth agenesis
Tooth agenesis (TA), the failure of development of one or more permanent teeth, is a common craniofacial abnormality observed in different world populations. The genetic etiology of TA is heterogeneous; more t...

The coexistence of copy number variations (CNVs) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at a locus can result in distorted calculations of the significance in associating SNPs to disease
With the recent advance in genome-wide association studies (GWAS), disease-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and copy number variants (CNVs) have been extensively reported. Accordingly, the iss...

Open AccessEvaluation of copy number variation detection for a SNP array platform
Copy Number Variations (CNVs) are usually inferred from Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) arrays by use of some software packages based on given algorithms. However, there is no clear understanding of the p...

NIPA2 located in 15q11.2 is mutated in patients with childhood absence epilepsy
While pathogenic copy number variations (CNVs) in 15q11.2 were recently identified in Caucasian patients with idiopathic generalized epilepsies (IGEs), the epilepsy-associated gene(s) in this region is/are sti...
