Abstract
PURPOSE The clinical spectrum of motile ciliopathies includes laterality defects, hydrocephalus, and infertility as well as primary ciliary dyskinesia when impaired mucociliary clearance results in otosinopulmonary disease. Importantly, approximately 30% of patients with primary ciliary dyskinesia lack a genetic diagnosis. METHODS Clinical, genomic, biochemical, and functional studies were performed alongside in vivo modeling of DAW1 variants. RESULTS In this study, we identified biallelic DAW1 variants associated with laterality defects and respiratory symptoms compatible with motile cilia dysfunction. In early mouse embryos, we showed that Daw1 expression is limited to distal, motile ciliated cells of the node, consistent with a role in left-right patterning. daw1 mutant zebrafish exhibited reduced cilia motility and left-right patterning defects, including cardiac looping abnormalities. Importantly, these defects were rescued by wild-type, but not mutant daw1, gene expression. In addition, pathogenic DAW1 missense variants displayed reduced protein stability, whereas DAW1 loss-of-function was associated with distal type 2 outer dynein arm assembly defects involving axonemal respiratory cilia proteins, explaining the reduced cilia-induced fluid flow in particle tracking velocimetry experiments. CONCLUSION Our data define biallelic DAW1 variants as a cause of human motile ciliopathy and determine that the disease mechanism involves motile cilia dysfunction, explaining the ciliary beating defects observed in affected individuals.

Clinical exome sequencing reveals locus heterogeneity and phenotypic variability of cohesinopathies. Genet Med 2019; 21:663-675.

Abstract
PURPOSE Defects in the cohesin pathway are associated with cohesinopathies, notably Cornelia de Lange syndrome (CdLS). We aimed to delineate pathogenic variants in known and candidate cohesinopathy genes from a clinical exome perspective. METHODS We retrospectively studied patients referred for clinical exome sequencing (CES, N = 10,698). Patients with causative variants in novel or recently described cohesinopathy genes were enrolled for phenotypic characterization. RESULTS Pathogenic or likely pathogenic single-nucleotide and insertion/deletion variants (SNVs/indels) were identified in established disease genes including NIPBL (N = 5), SMC1A (N = 14), SMC3 (N = 4), RAD21 (N = 2), and HDAC8 (N = 8). The phenotypes in this genetically defined cohort skew towards the mild end of CdLS spectrum as compared with phenotype-driven cohorts. Candidate or recently reported cohesinopathy genes were supported by de novo SNVs/indels in STAG1 (N = 3), STAG2 (N = 5), PDS5A (N = 1), and WAPL (N = 1), and one inherited SNV in PDS5A. We also identified copy-number deletions affecting STAG1 (two de novo, one of unknown inheritance) and STAG2 (one of unknown inheritance). Patients with STAG1 and STAG2 variants presented with overlapping features yet without characteristic facial features of CdLS. CONCLUSION CES effectively identified disease-causing alleles at the mild end of the cohensinopathy spectrum and enabled characterization of candidate disease genes.
