Comparison of the ABC and ACMG systems for variant classification
Houge, Gunnar; Bratland, Eirik; Aukrust, Ingvild; Tveten, Kristian; Žukauskaitė, Gabrielė; Sansovic, Ivona; rea-Fernández, Alejandro J.B; Mayer, KarinThe ABC and ACMG variant classification systems were compared by asking mainly European clinical laboratories to classify variants in 10 challenging cases using both systems, and to state if the variant in question would be reported as a relevant result or not as a measure of clinical utility. In contrast to the ABC system, the ACMG system was not made to guide variant reporting but to determine the likelihood ...

Splicing therapeutics for patients affected by lysosomal storage disorders
Matos, Liliana; Gonçalves, Vânia; Canals, Isaac; Jordan, Peter; Grinberg, Daniel; Pérez, Belén; Prata, Maria João; Alves, SandraIn this study, we have used a modified U1 snRNA that completely matches the splice donor site of HGSNAT gene exon 2, which corrected the effect of the common 5’ splice site mutation c.234+1G>A in Mucopolysaccharidosis IIIC. In another approach using an antisense oligonucleotide (AO) we have succeeded in the correction of the c.66G>A splicing mutation in CSTB gene (Unverricht–Lundborg disease). Besides that, we ...
Development of a U1 snRNA-adapted gene therapeutic strategy to correct 5’ splic...
Alves, Sandra; Pérez, Belén; Desviat, Lourdes; Matos, LilianaStudy aims: To overcome the pathogenic effect of two 5’ splice donor site (SDS) mutations diagnosed in LSDs patients, we have exploited the use of the antisense-U1 snRNA mediated therapeutic strategy to correct both 5’ SDS mutations that were reported in patients with Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) (3) and Mucolipidosis III alpha/beta (ML III alpha/beta).
Data in support of a functional analysis of splicing mutations in the IDS gene ...
Matos, Liliana; Gonçalves, Vânia; Pinto, Eugénia; Laranjeira, Francisco; Prata, Maria João; Jordan, Peter; Desviat, Lourdes R.; Pérez, BelénThis data article contains insights into the methodology used for the analysis of three exonic mutations altering the splicing of the IDS gene: c.241C>T, c.257C>T and c.1122C>T. We have performed splicing assays for the wild-type and mutant minigenes corresponding to these substitutions. In addition, bioinformatic predictions of splicing regulatory sequence elements as well as RNA interference and overexpressio...
