Thus, variant prioritization is an essential step in the process of rare disease diagnosis. In addition to conducting the usual in-silico analyses to predict variant pathogenicity (based on nucleotide/amino-acid conservation and the differences between the physicochemical features of the amino-acid change), three important concepts should be borne in mind. The first is the “mutation tolerance” of the genes in which variants are located. This describes the susceptibility of a given gene to any functional mutation and depends on the strength of purifying selection acting against it. The second is the “mutational architecture” of each gene. This describes the type and location of mutations previously identified in the gene, and their association with different phenotypes or degrees of severity.

G. Taylor1 & Luisa Mestroni1 # Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Purpose of Review The purpose of this review is to provide an update on lamin A/C (LMNA)-related cardiomyopathy and discuss the current recommendations and progress in the management of this disease. LMNA-related cardiomyopathy, an inherited autosomal dominant disease, is one of the most common causes of dilated cardiomyopathy and is characterized by steady progression toward heart failure and high risks of arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Recent Findings We discuss recent advances in the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of the disease including altered cell biomechanics, which may represent novel therapeutic targets to advance the current management approach, which relies on standard heart failure recommendations. Future therapeutic approaches include repurposed molecularly directed drugs, siRNA- based gene silencing, and genome editing. Summary LMNA-related cardiomyopathy is the focus of active in vitro and in vivo research, which is expected to generate novel biomarkers and identify new therapeutic targets. LMNA-related cardiomyopathy trials are currently underway. Keywords Lamin A/C gene . Laminopathy . Heart failure . Arrhythmias . Mechanotransduction . P53 .

  • Cardiomyopathy Precision Panel Overview Indications
    Cardiomyopathy Precision Panel Overview Cardiomyopathies are a group of conditions with a strong genetic background that structurally hinder the heart to pump out blood to the rest of the body due to weakness in the heart muscles. These diseases affect individuals of all ages and can lead to heart failure and sudden cardiac death. If there is a family history of cardiomyopathy it is strongly recommended to undergo genetic testing to be aware of the family risk, personal risk, and treatment options. Most types of cardiomyopathies are inherited in a dominant manner, which means that one altered copy of the gene is enough for the disease to present in an individual. The symptoms of cardiomyopathy are variable, and these diseases can present in different ways. There are 5 types of cardiomyopathies, the most common being hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: 1. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) 2. Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) 3. Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) 4. Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (ARVC) 5. Isolated Left Ventricular Non-Compaction Cardiomyopathy (LVNC). The Igenomix Cardiomyopathy Precision Panel serves as a diagnostic and tool ultimately leading to a better management and prognosis of the disease. It provides a comprehensive analysis of the genes involved in this disease using next-generation sequencing (NGS) to fully understand the spectrum of relevant genes. Indications The Igenomix Cardiomyopathy Precision Panel is indicated in those cases where there is a clinical suspicion of cardiomyopathy with or without the following manifestations: - Shortness of breath - Fatigue - Arrythmia (abnormal heart rhythm) - Family history of arrhythmia - Abnormal scans - Ventricular tachycardia - Ventricular fibrillation - Chest Pain - Dizziness - Sudden cardiac death in the family 1 Clinical Utility The clinical utility of this panel is: - The genetic and molecular diagnosis for an accurate clinical diagnosis of a patient with personal or family history of cardiomyopathy, channelopathy or sudden cardiac death.

    Whole Exome Sequencing Gene package Multiple congenital anomalie, version 5, 1‐2‐2018 Technical information DNA was enriched using Agilent SureSelect Clinical Research Exome V2 capture and paired‐end sequenced on the Illumina platform (outsourced). The aim is to obtain 8.1 Giga base pairs per exome with a mapped fraction of 0.99. The average coverage of the exome is ~50x. Duplicate reads are excluded. Data are demultiplexed with bcl2fastq Conversion Software from Illumina. Reads are mapped to the genome using the BWA‐MEM algorithm (reference: http://bio‐bwa.sourceforge.net/). Variant detection is performed by the Genome Analysis Toolkit HaplotypeCaller (reference: http://www.broadinstitute.org/gatk/). The detected variants are filtered and annotated with Cartagenia software and classified with Alamut Visual. It is not excluded that pathogenic mutations are being missed using this technology. At this moment, there is not enough information about the sensitivity of this technique with respect to the detection of deletions and duplications of more than 5 nucleotides and of somatic mosaic mutations (all types of sequence changes).

  • Blueprint Genetics Comprehensive Growth Disorders / Skeletal
    Comprehensive Growth Disorders / Skeletal Dysplasias and Disorders Panel Test code: MA4301 Is a 374 gene panel that includes assessment of non-coding variants. This panel covers the majority of the genes listed in the Nosology 2015 (PMID: 26394607) and all genes in our Malformation category that cause growth retardation, short stature or skeletal dysplasia and is therefore a powerful diagnostic tool. It is ideal for patients suspected to have a syndromic or an isolated growth disorder or a skeletal dysplasia. About Comprehensive Growth Disorders / Skeletal Dysplasias and Disorders This panel covers a broad spectrum of diseases associated with growth retardation, short stature or skeletal dysplasia. Many of these conditions have overlapping features which can make clinical diagnosis a challenge. Genetic diagnostics is therefore the most efficient way to subtype the diseases and enable individualized treatment and management decisions. Moreover, detection of causative mutations establishes the mode of inheritance in the family which is essential for informed genetic counseling.

  • Prenatalscreen® Standard Technical Report
    About PrenatalScreen® Prenatal Test PrenatalScreen® Prenatal Test is a genetic test that analyses fetal DNA, obtained from CVS or amniotic fluid following an invasive prenatal diagnosis, to screen for monogenic disorders in the fetus. Using the latest technologies, including Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), PrenatalScreen® Prenatal Test screen 744 genes for mutations causing over 1.000 severe genetic disorders in the fetus. PrenatalScreen® Prenatal Test allows for a comprehensive care and enables patients to make more informed reproductive decisions. Offering PrenatalScreen® Prenatal Test to a patient during pregnancy allows her to gain more knowledge about the potential to pass along a condition to the fetus. Aim of the test PrenatalScreen® Prenatal Test analyses DNA extracted from fetal cells in the amniotic fluid, collected through amniocentesis, or in the chorionic villi through villocentesis (CVS). The aim of this diagnositc test is to assess severe genetic diseases in the fetus, including the most common diseases in the European population. Genes listed in Table 1 were selected according to the incidence in the population of the disease caused by mutations in such genes, the severity of the clinical phenotype at birth and the importance of the related pathogenetic picture, in accordance with the indications of the American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG)(Grody et al., Genet Med 2013:15:482–483). PrenatalScreen®: Indication for testing PrenatalScreen® Prenatal Test is intended for patients who meet any of the following criteria: • Personal/familial anamnesis of hereditary genetic diseases; • For expectant mothers wishing to reduce the risk of a genetic diseases in the fetus; • For natural or in vitro fertilization (IVF)-derived pregnancies: • For couples using heterologus IVF procedures (egg/sperm donors).
