Abstract: Nat Med. 2019 Apr;25(4):583–590. PMID: 30804514In brief: This study describes the first skeletal dysplasia caused by a mutation in a microRNA that is not simply inactivating, but modifies the repertoire of target genes.Comment: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small (20–24 nucleotides) noncoding RNA molecules that post-transcriptio...

In Brief: The 11th edition of the ‘Nosology’ is significantly expanded, now covering 771 conditions linked to 552 genes. In a major shift from previous editions, it has adopted a dyadic naming system that defines disorders based on both their phenotypic and genetic features. It continues to be a vital tool for diagnosing and communicating about genetic skeletal disorders.Commentary: The first Nosology of genetic skeletal disorders was published...
