Identifying genetic mosaicism is important in establishing a diagnosis, assessing recurrence risk, and providing accurate genetic counseling. Next-generation sequencing has allowed for the identification of mosaicism at levels below those detectable by conventional Sanger sequencing or chromosomal microarray analysis. The CAUSES Clinic was a pediatric translational trio-based genome-wide (exome or genome) sequencing study of 500 families (531 children) with suspected genetic disease at BC Children's and Women's Hospitals. Here we present 12 cases of apparent mosaicism identified in the CAUSES cohort: nine cases of parental mosaicism for a disease-causing variant found in a child and three cases of mosaicism in the proband for a de novo variant. In six of these cases, there was no evidence of mosaicism on Sanger sequencing--the variant was not detected on Sanger sequencing in three cases, and it appeared to be heterozygous in three others. These cases are examples of six clinical manifestations of mosaicism: a proband with classical clinical features of mosaicism (e.g., segmental abnormalities of skin pigmentation or asymmetrical growth of bilateral body parts), a proband with unusually mild manifestations of a disease, a mosaic proband who is clinically indistinguishable from the constitutive phenotype, a mosaic parent with no clinical features of the disease, a mosaic parent with mild manifestations of the disease, and a family in which both parents are unaffected and two siblings have the same disease-causing constitutional mutation. Our data demonstrate the importance of considering the possibility of mosaicism whenever exome or genome sequencing is performed and that its detection via genome-wide sequencing can permit more accurate genetic counseling.

- Abstract
Clinical use of genome‐wide sequencing (GWS) requires pre‐test genetic counseling, but the availability of genetic counseling is limited. We developed an interactive online decision‐support tool, DECIDE, to make genetic counseling, patient education, and decision support more readily available. We performed a non‐inferiority trial comparing DECIDE to standard genetic counseling to assess the clinical value of DECIDE for pre‐GWS counseling. One hundred and six parents considering GWS for their children with epilepsy were randomized to conventional genetic counseling or DECIDE. Following the intervention, we measured parents' knowledge and empowerment and asked their opinions about using DECIDE. Both DECIDE and conventional genetic counseling significantly increased parents' knowledge, with no difference between groups. Empowerment also increased but by less than 2% in each group. Parents liked using DECIDE and found it useful; 81% would recommend it to others; 49% wished to use it along with a genetic counselor; 26% of parents preferred to see a genetic counselor; 7% preferred DECIDE alone; and 18% had no preference. DECIDE appears equivalent to genetic counseling at conveying information. In addition, it was highly acceptable to the majority of study participants, many of whom indicated that it was useful to their decision‐making. Use of DECIDE as a pre‐test tool may extend genetic counseling resources. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background We undertook genetic analysis of three affected families to identify the cause of dominantlyinherited CAPOS (cerebellar ataxia, areflexia, pes cavus, optic atrophy and sensorineural hearing loss) syndrome. Methods We used whole-exome sequencing to analyze two families affected with CAPOS syndrome, including the original family reported in 1996, and Sanger sequencing to assess familial segregation of rare variants identified in the probands and in a third, apparently unrelated family with CAPOS syndrome. Results We found an identical heterozygous missense mutation, c.2452G > A (p.(Glu818Lys)), in the Na+/K+ ATPase α3 (ATP1A3) gene in the proband and his affected sister and mother, but not in either unaffected maternal grandparent, in the first family. The same mutation was also identified in the proband and three other affected members of the second family and in all three affected members of the third family. This mutation was not found in more than 3600 chromosomes from unaffected individuals. Conclusion Other mutations in ATP1A3 have previously been demonstrated to cause rapid-onset dystonia-parkinsonism (also called dystonia-12) or alternating hemiplegia of childhood. This study shows that an allelic mutation in ATP1A3 produces CAPOS syndrome. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Background: SCN8A -related disorders are a group of variable conditions caused by pathogenic variations in SCN8A . Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) terms them as developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 13, benign familial infantile seizures 5 or cognitive impairment with or without cerebellar ataxia., Methods: In this study, we describe clinical and genetic results on eight individuals from six families with SCN8A pathogenic variants identified via exome sequencing., Results: Clinical findings ranged from normal development with well-controlled epilepsy to significant developmental delay with treatment-resistant epilepsy. Three novel and three reported variants were observed in SCN8A . Electrophysiological analysis in transfected cells revealed a loss-of-function variant in Patient 4., Conclusions: This work expands the clinical and genotypic spectrum of SCN8A -related disorders and provides electrophysiological results on a novel loss-of-function SCN8A variant., Competing Interests: Competing interest The authors declare that they have no competing interests.
