Biallelic variants in YRDC cause a developmental disorder with progeroid features

Abstract: The highly conserved YrdC domain-containing protein (YRDC) interacts with the well-described KEOPS complex, regulating specific tRNA modifications to ensure accurate protein synthesis. Previous studies have linked the KEOPS complex to a role in promoting telomere maintenance and controlling genome integrity. Here, we report on a newborn with a severe neonatal progeroid phenotype including generalized loss of subcutaneous fat, microcephaly, growth retardation, wrinkled skin, renal failure, and premature death a… Show more

“…In order to validate the scRNA-seq approach and to shed light on the transcriptional signatures, we used the unique patient cohort, all representing premature ageing phenotypes. These samples have been previously described from gene panels and whole exome sequencing, reporting causative mutations 16 , 17 . To evaluate transcriptional heterogeneity, we searched for genes expressed selectively in each of the samples that were described previously on cellular hallmarks of ageing driving physiological and pathological ageing processes, such as genomic instability, telomere attrition, epigenetic alterations, loss of proteostasis, mitochondrial dysfunction, deregulated nutrient sensing, stem cell exhaustion, cellular senescence and altered intercellular communication 22 , 23 .…”

“…Here we report a novel high-throughput single-cell RNA-seq approach with full coverage of transcripts using the SMART-Seq technology, demonstrating the molecular characterization of mutational and transcriptional heterogeneity in dermal fibroblasts derived from six patients with different segmental progeria syndromes. In addition to the causative mutations previously identified in these patients 16 , 17 , we performed regulon analysis to identify interactions of genetic alterations that can be held responsible for the phenotypic heterogeneity.…”

“…In the frame of the clinical and molecular work in our recently established Center for Progeroid Disorders, we had previously used NGS-based approaches to determine the molecular diagnosis of progeria patients in early stages of a disease [16][17][18][19] . Although the identification of primary causative genes and pathogenic variants is essential for understanding the patient-specific pathogenesis, systematic biological screens are necessary to elucidate variant and transcriptional heterogeneity.…”

“…[homozygous], p.Ile221Thr 19 ), GOE486 (AHCTF1, c.6329C>G [de novo], p.Ser2110Cys For dimensionality reduction and data visualisation we performed the t-SNE algorithm (as implemented in CogentDS). To evaluate transcriptional events regarding samples in both scRNA-seq methods, we analysed cell groups based on their sample association (Figure 4a) and performed, in parallel, unsupervised graph-based clustering of cells based on their gene expressions (Figure 4c).…”
