A de novo balanced t(2;6)(p15;p22.3) in a patient with West Syndrome disrupts a lnc-RNA.

In a male patient with West Syndrome we identified a perfectly balanced, de novo balanced translocation 46,XY,t(2;6)(p15;p22.3). No known protein coding genes were disrupted by the translocation and positional effects on nearby genes were excluded by expression studies. A putative long non-coding RNA, BX118339, spans the breakpoint on chromosome 6. It can be hypothesized that disruption of this non-coding transcript plays a role in the pathogenesis of the patient.

SMART Video-tracking (tool)

RRID:SCR_002852

Software for the automated evaluation of behavior in a range of pre-clinical and neuroscience applications in basic and clinical psychopharmacology. Applications include phenotype characterization and studying the behavioral effects of pharmacologic substances.

Cufflinks (tool)

RRID:SCR_014597

Software tool for transcriptome assembly and differential expression analysis for RNA-Seq. Includes script called cuffmerge that can be used to merge together several Cufflinks assemblies. It also handles running Cuffcompare as well as automatically filtering a number of transfrags that are likely to be artifacts. If the researcher has a reference GTF file, the researcher can provide it to the script to more effectively merge novel isoforms and maximize overall assembly quality.
