Comment on list classification: New gene added by Zornitza Stark. All patients reported in PMID: 33199684 presented GDD/ID, while other features were relatively heterogenous. However, cognitive impairment was perhaps too mild in majority of cases. Tagged 'for-review' to assess whether there is sufficient evidence for a Green rating in light of the scope of the ID panel.

Currently not associated with any phenotype in OMIM or Gene2Phenotype.

- PMID: 33199684 (2020) - 21 individuals affected by mild to severe GDD often with speech delay, discovered either by WES or microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization. GDD/ID was the universal feature among cases, albeit of variable degree and majority of cases were mild. Nonetheless, authors do report moderate/severe delay in at least 4 unrelated cases. Other features include hypotonia (12/21), gait abnormalities (10/18), brain MRI anomalies, mainly affecting the corpus callosum (9/16), seizures (8/18) and skeletal anomalies, not including congenital anomalies of the skull (9/19).
Some functional studies showing that each variant resulted in impaired shRNA-mediated silencing due to defects in RISC formation or increased binding of AGO2 to mRNA targets.
