📢 paper alert 📢 #epilepsy associaties RNU2-2 description by @christeldepienne.bsky.social @nickywhiffin.bsky.social
-> recessive cases often include one de novo and one inherited variant
-> complex architecture of non-coding RNU genes, many novel questions for the field #genetics #raredisease
R-Synapse
🧬Three papers newly published in Nature Genetics spotlight RNU2-2 as a major cause of recessive developmental and epileptic encephalopathies.
Congratulations to all three teams!
