Missense variants in these genes can result in gain or loss of the NMDAR function, requiring opposite therapeutic treatments. Computational methods that predict pathogenicity and molecular functional effects of missense variants are therefore crucial for therapeutic applications. We assembled 223 missense variants from patients, 631 control variants from the general population, and 160 missense variants characterized by electrophysiological readouts that show whether they can enhance or reduce the function of the receptor. This includes new functional data from 33 variants reported here, for the first time. By mapping these variants onto the NMDAR protein structures, we found that pathogenic/benign variants and variants that increase/decrease the channel function were distributed unevenly on the protein structure, with spatial proximity to ligands bound to the agonist and antagonist binding sites being a key predictive feature for both variant pathogenicity and molecular functional consequences. Leveraging distances from ligands, we developed two machine-learning based predictors for NMDA variants: a pathogenicity predictor which outperforms currently available predictors and the first molecular function (increase/decrease) predictor.

Early diagnosis improves outcomes, but many individuals remain without a confident genetic diagnosis. Improved and expanded molecular testing methods are required to improve genetic diagnosis rates and thereby improve clinical outcomes. Using primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) as an exemplar rare genetic respiratory disease, we developed a standardized method to identify pathogenic variants using whole transcriptome RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) of nasal epithelial cells cultured at air-liquid interface (ALI). The method was optimized using cells from healthy volunteers, and people with rhino-pulmonary disease but no diagnostic indication of PCD. We validated the method using nasal epithelial cells from PCD patients with known genetic cause. We then assessed the ability of RNA-seq to identify pathogenic variants and the disease mechanism in PCD likely patients but in whom DNA genetic testing was inconclusive. The majority of 49 targeted PCD genes were optimally identified in RNA-seq data from nasal epithelial cells grown for 21 days at ALI culture. Four PCD-likely patients without a previous genetic diagnosis received a confirmed genetic diagnosis from the findings of the RNA-seq data. We demonstrate the clinical potential of RNA-seq of nasal epithelial cells to identify variants in individuals with genetically unsolved PCD. This uplifted genetic diagnosis should improve genetic counselling, enables family cascade screening, opens the door to potential personalised treatment and care approaches.

While benign tumors in the heart, lungs, kidney, and brain are all hallmarks of the disease, the most severe symptoms of TSC are often neurological, including seizures, autism, psychiatric disorders, and intellectual disabilities. TSC is caused by loss of function mutations in the TSC1 or TSC2 genes and consequent dysregulation of signaling via mechanistic Target of Rapamycin Complex 1 (mTORC1). While TSC neurological phenotypes are well-documented, it is not yet known how early in neural development TSC1/2-mutant cells diverge from the typical developmental trajectory. Another outstanding question is the contribution of homozygous-mutant cells to disease phenotypes and whether phenotypes are also present in the heterozygous-mutant populations that comprise the vast majority of cells in patients. Using TSC patient-derived isogenic induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) with defined genetic changes, we observed aberrant early neurodevelopment in vitro, including misexpression of key proteins associated with lineage commitment and premature electrical activity. These alterations in differentiation were coincident with hundreds of differentially methylated DNA regions, including loci associated with key genes in neurodevelopment.

Leveraging data from the FinnGen study, we conducted a genome-wide association study on severe Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome caused by PUUV with 2227 cases. We identified associations at the Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) locus and ERAP1 with severe PUUV infection. HLA molecules are canonical mediators for immune recognition and response. ERAP1 facilitates immune system recognition and activation by cleaving viral proteins into smaller peptides which are presented to the immune system via HLA class I molecules. Notably, we identified that the lead variant (rs26653, OR = 0.84, P = 2.9 × 10-8) in the ERAP1 gene was a missense variant changing amino acid arginine to proline. From the HLA region, we showed independent and significant associations with both HLA class I and II genes.

Many of these phenotypes, including atypical neurodevelopment, emerge prenatally.
