@ExeterGenomes are celebrating!! The team in Exeter have been delivering diagnoses for children with rare genetic diseases since 2013. Initially as exomes, now thriving as a national rapid genome sequencing service (R14). We've just passed our 9000th family 😮🎉🥳 @SWGLH

Excited to share our @Nature paper introducing constraint metrics for #mtDNA! Constraint models are powerful tools that were missing for mtDNA—until now. By applying our model to #gnomAD, we reveal which sites in mtDNA are most crucial for health & disease nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

This is such a beautiful paper led by @ChristelDepienn and Caroline Nava, further characterising ReNU syndrome (caused by variants in RNU4-2) and also detailing a role for RNU5B-1 in NDD 🧬
Some highlights 🧵1/8
