Identification of a novel TLE6 mutation linked to embryonic arrest and limited rescue by mRNA supplementation
These findings expand the TLE6 variant spectrum and support a loss-of-function mechanism causing embryonic arrest through SCMC disruption. Acute zygotic mRNA supplementation was insufficient to restore developmental competence, indicating the need for alternative or early-stage interventions and informing genetic counseling for affected families.
