The Human Gene Mutation Database: towards a comprehensive repository of inherited mutation data for medical research, genetic diagnosis and next-generation sequencing studies

Peter D. Stenson, Matthew Mort, Edward V. Ball et al. · 27 Mar 2017

) constitutes a comprehensive collection of published germline mutations in nuclear genes that underlie, or are closely associated with human inherited disease. At the time of writing (March 2017), the database contained in excess of 203,000 different gene lesions identified in over 8000 genes manually curated from over 2600 journals. With new mutation entries currently…

The Human Gene Mutation Database: building a comprehensive mutation repository for clinical and molecular genetics, diagnostic testing and personalized genomic medicine

Peter D. Stenson, Matthew Mort, Edward V. Ball et al. · 27 Sep 2013

The Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD®) is a comprehensive collection of germline mutations in nuclear genes that underlie, or are associated with, human inherited disease. By June 2013, the database contained over 141,000 different lesions detected in over 5,700 different genes, with new mutation entries currently accumulating at a rate exceeding 10,000 per annum. HGMD…

The hnRNP family: insights into their role in health and disease

Thomas Geuens, Delphine Bouhy, Vincent Timmerman · 23 May 2016

Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs) represent a large family of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that contribute to multiple aspects of nucleic acid metabolism including alternative splicing, mRNA stabilization, and transcriptional and translational regulation. Many hnRNPs share general features, but differ in domain composition and functional properties. This review will discuss the current knowledge about the different hnRNP…

Human Genetics template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Human Genetics format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Human Genetics template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Springer Nature format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Human Genetics use?
Human Genetics uses Numbered (Springer Basic) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith A, Jones B, Lee C (2023) A representative article title. Human Genetics 12:45–58
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Human Genetics?
No. DocuGuru generates the sn-jnl LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Springer Nature-ready Human Genetics document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Human Genetics template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Human Genetics format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
Who publishes Human Genetics?
Human Genetics is a multidisciplinary journal published by Springer Nature. DocuGuru's Human Genetics template matches Springer Nature's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Human Genetics PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Human Genetics template (the sn-jnl class) that is ready to submit to Springer Nature, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Human Genetics template cost?
You can start writing in the Human Genetics template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Human Genetics PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
