NPJ Genom Med. 2020 Jul 06;5:29. doi: 10.1038/s41525-020-0137-0. eCollection 2020.

While genomic data is frequently collected under distinct research protocols and disparate clinical and research regimes, there is a benefit in streamlining sequencing strategies to create harmonized databases, particularly in the area of pediatric rare disease. Research hospitals seeking...

Evaluation of copy number variants for genetic hearing loss: a review of current approaches and recent findings.

Human genetics

Abbasi W, French CE, Rockowitz S, Kenna MA, Eliot Shearer A.
PMID: 34811589
Hum Genet. 2021 Nov 22; doi: 10.1007/s00439-021-02365-1. Epub 2021 Nov 22.

Structural variation includes a change in copy number, orientation, or location of a part of the genome. Copy number variants (CNVs) are a common cause of genetic hearing loss, comprising nearly 20% of diagnosed cases. While large deletions involving...

Children's Vulnerability to Sexual Violence During COVID-19 in Kenya: Recommendations for the Future.

Frontiers in global women's health

Stevens LM, Rockey JC, Rockowitz SR, Kanja W, Colloff MF, Flowe HD.
PMID: 34816191
Front Glob Womens Health. 2021 Feb 24;2:630901. doi: 10.3389/fgwh.2021.630901. eCollection 2021.

This article discusses the latest research that reveals that children seem to be facing new risks of sexual violence in Kenya during the COVID-19 pandemic. The evidence suggests there have been changes in patterns of sexual offenses against children...

Pax6 associates with H3K4-specific histone methyltransferases Mll1, Mll2, and Set1a and regulates H3K4 methylation at promoters and enhancers.

Epigenetics & chromatin

Sun J, Zhao Y, McGreal R, Cohen-Tayar Y, Rockowitz S, Wilczek C, Ashery-Padan R, Shechter D, Zheng D, Cvekl A.
PMID: 27617035
Epigenetics Chromatin. 2016 Sep 09;9(1):37. doi: 10.1186/s13072-016-0087-z. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: Pax6 is a key regulator of the entire cascade of ocular lens formation through specific binding to promoters and enhancers of batteries of target genes. The promoters and enhancers communicate with each other through DNA looping mediated by...

Divergence and rewiring of regulatory networks for neural development between human and other species.

Neurogenesis (Austin, Tex.)

Wang P, Zhao D, Rockowitz S, Zheng D.
PMID: 27900343
Neurogenesis (Austin). 2016 Sep 19;3(1):e1231495. doi: 10.1080/23262133.2016.1231495. eCollection 2016.

Neural and brain development in human and other mammalian species are largely similar, but distinct features exist at the levels of macrostructure and underlying genetic control. Comparative studies of epigenetic regulation and transcription factor (TF) binding in humans, chimpanzees,...

Congenital X-linked neutropenia with myelodysplasia and somatic tetraploidy due to a germline mutation in SEPT6.

American journal of hematology

Renella R, Gagne K, Beauchamp E, Fogel J, Perlov A, Sola M, Schlaeger T, Hofmann I, Shimamura A, Ebert BL, Schmitz-Abe K, Markianos K, Murphy K, Sun L, Rockowitz S, Sliz P, Campagna DR, Springer TA, Bahl C, Agarwal S, Fleming MD, Williams DA.
PMID: 34677878
Am J Hematol. 2021 Oct 22; doi: 10.1002/ajh.26382. Epub 2021 Oct 22.

Septins play key roles in mammalian cell division and cytokinesis but have not previously been implicated in a germline human disorder. A male infant with severe neutropenia and progressive dysmyelopoiesis with tetraploid myeloid precursors was identified. No known genetic...

Dual-vector gene therapy restores cochlear amplification and auditory sensitivity in a mouse model of DFNB16 hearing loss.

HGG Adv. 2021 Jul;2(3). doi: 10.1016/j.xhgg.2021.100035. Epub 2021 May 11.

Effective genetic diagnosis requires the correlation of genetic variant data with detailed phenotypic information. However, manual encoding of clinical data into machine-readable forms is laborious and subject to observer bias. Natural language processing (NLP) of electronic health records has...

A synonymous coding variant that alters ALAS2 splicing and causes X-linked sideroblastic anemia.
