Five novel NF1 gene pathogenic variants in 10 different Chinese families with neurofibromatosis type 1.

Molecular genetics & genomic medicine | 2019

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant disorder with equal sex incidence that is characterized by neurofibromas, café-au-lait macules, axillary freckling, optic pathway tumor, distinctive osseous lesion, and iris Lisch nodules. Inactivating variants in the NF1 gene have been identified to be correlated with NF1. This tumor suppressor gene is located at 17q11.2.

PolyPhred (tool)

RRID:SCR_002337

Software program that compares fluorescence-based sequences across traces obtained from different individuals to identify heterozygous sites for single nucleotide substitutions. Its functions are integrated with the use of three other programs: Phred (Brent Ewing and Phil Green), Phrap (Phil Green), and Consed (David Gordon and Phil Green). PolyPhred identifies potential heterozygotes using the base calls and peak information provided by Phred and the sequence alignments provided by Phrap. Potential heterozygotes identified by PolyPhred are marked for rapid inspection using the Consed tool.

GenBank (tool)

RRID:SCR_002760

NIH genetic sequence database that provides annotated collection of all publicly available DNA sequences for almost 280 000 formally described species (Jan 2014) .These sequences are obtained primarily through submissions from individual laboratories and batch submissions from large-scale sequencing projects, including whole-genome shotgun (WGS) and environmental sampling projects. Most submissions are made using web-based BankIt or standalone Sequin programs, and GenBank staff assigns accession numbers upon data receipt. It is part of International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration and daily data exchange with European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) and DNA Data Bank of Japan (DDBJ) ensures worldwide coverage. GenBank is accessible through NCBI Entrez retrieval system, which integrates data from major DNA and protein sequence databases along with taxonomy, genome, mapping, protein structure and domain information, and biomedical journal literature via PubMed. BLAST provides sequence similarity searches of GenBank and other sequence databases. Complete bimonthly releases and daily updates of GenBank database are available by FTP.
