Dogs and humans have significant similarities in their genomes. Mutations in orthologous genes cause ataxia in both man and his “best friend”. This paper describes due to SLC12A6 mutations in a Malinois dog family, providing insight into pathogenesis.

(3/3) Amongst UK health professionals the preference was for panel testing for inherited cardiac diseases. The authors believe this is because it reduces identification of variants of uncertain significance. https://t.co/aU1uiGTDiK

(2/3) Here a discrete choice experimental design was used to see which type of testing was preferred by clinicians and why.

(1/3) and sequencing identify more pathogenic variants than gene panels for inherited cardiac disease, at the cost of increased identification of variants of uncertain significance. The optimal testing strategy is an open question.
