Functional testing of a human PBX3 variant in zebrafish reveals a potential modifier role in congenital heart defects
1 Oct 2018
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT Whole-genome and exome sequencing efforts are increasingly identifying candidate genetic variants associated with human disease. However, predicting and testing the pathogenicity of a genetic variant remains challenging. Genome editing allows for the rigorous functional testing of human genetic variants in animal models. Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are a prominent example of a human disorder with...
