OMIM recently created an entry for this disorder : Intellectual developmental disorder with speech delay, autism, and dysmorphic facies (#618672).

The DDD study (2017 - PMID: 28135719) had identified 7 individuals with de novo CNOT3 variants (5 with missense and 2 with pLoF variants) with 5/7 presenting global developmental delay not further specified (suppl).

A recent study by Martin et al (2019 - PMID: 31201375) is the first description of the associated developmental phenotype. The authors report on 16 individuals, all harboring de novo missense or truncating CNOT3 variants. 8 of these individuals were identified by the DDD study (with other DDD cases not included).

Hypotonia, DD and ID, relatively small stature and behavioral problems (among others ASD in 6/16) were the most consistent features in their cohort. Some facial features (incl. anteverted nares, thin upper lip or low set eyebrows) were more common. Epilepsy was reported in few. As also commented in the respective OMIM entry, ID and other features were also present in subjects with missense variants.

CNOT3 encodes a subunit of the CCR4-NOT protein complex, the latter playing a role in transcriptional regulation (as well as post-transcriptional mRNA regulation) (Martin et al / Boland et al - PMID: 24121232 / OMIM).

The gene appears to be highly intolerant to both missense and LoF variants (z-score of 3.89 and pLI of 1 respectively). 7 different missense variants [3 affecting Arg188 : Arg188His (x2), Arg188Cys (x1)] and 8 different LoF variants are reported. As a result haploinsufficiency appears to be the likely mechanism.

Mutations in other genes encoding subunits of the complex (among others and CNOT2, CNOT1) cause neurodevelopmental disorders (genes rated green in the current panel).
