Comment on list classification: There are now at least 7 individuals from 4 unrelated families with biallelic variants in the CCDC88A gene (PMID: 26917597; 30392057; 37798908; 39334473), described to a PEHO-like syndrome with universal features including ID, epilepsy, microcephaly and optic nerve/cerebellar atrophy.

Sufficient unrelated cases with the same phenotype to promote this gene to green at the next GMS panel update.

Comment on list classification: This gene has been upgraded from Red to Amber based on the external reviews by Konstantinos Varvagiannis and Zornitza Stark.

As suggested in a previous review this gene can possibly be considered for upgrade to amber based on PMID: 26917597 (3 individuals from a broader consanguineous pedigree, all homozygous for a nonsense variant shown to escape NMD but producing a severely truncated protein. Mouse knockout phenotype mimics the human).

PMID: 30392057 is probably a second report on the phenotype related to biallelic CCDC88A mutations. 2 sibs born to consanguineous parents from Saudi Arabia are described very briefly (epilepsy, ID, optic atrophy and pedal edema). Both sibs were homozygous for a novel truncating variant [c.1292G>A p.(Trp431*)].

NB. Apart from the poor phenotypic description the article has a few additional issues :
- The reference sequence is not mentioned but c.1292G>A would correspond to Trp431* whether NM_001135597/NM_018084/NM_001254943 is used [http://www.mutationtaster.org/cgi-bin/MutationTaster/MT_ChrPos.cgi?chromosome=2&position=55570825&ref=C&alt=T] The sequence from the chromatograms provided maps only to CCDC88A and corresponds to the predicted amino acid change (using UCSC's Blat).
- The 3 additional variants in Table 1 (ref: Ekici et al. 2010) probably correspond to CCDC88C but not CCDC88A [correct reference for these variants : Ekici et al., 2010 - PMID: 21031079].

The corresponding phenotype in OMIM is # 617507 PEHO-like syndrome.

Overall this gene can be considered for upgrade to amber until further cases are published.
