Comment on list classification: Promoted from red to green based on the new evidence provided by Konstantinos Varvagiannis, which shows that there are enough cases to support gene-disease association.

Oegema et al. (2017 - PMID: 28542170) reported 3 unrelated individuals with moderate to severe cognitive delay (3/3), cataracts (3/3) as well some additional common skeletal/facial features. All subjects, were of Dutch ancestry and harbored a nonsense INTS1 variant in the homozygous state [NM_001080453.2:c.5351C>A or p.(Ser1784*)]. A region of homozygosity shared by all 3, suggested that the mutation originated from a common ancestor. qRT-PCR in patient fibroblasts demonstrated significantly reduced mRNA levels compared to controls.
--------------
Krall et al. (2019 - PMID: 30622326) report on 5 additional individuals (2 pairs of sibs and an additional subject) with biallelic INTS1 variants. The authors provide some further clinical information on the 3 subjects previously reported by Oegema et al.

One sib pair was found to harbor a missense variant (p.Arg77Cys) as well as frameshift one (p.Arg1800Profs*20) in the compound heterozygous state. Sibs in the second family were homozygous for a further missense variant (p.Pro1874Leu). The fifth individual harbored a frameshift variant (p.Leu1764Cysfs*16) in trans with a missense one (p.Leu2164Pro).

As p.Arg77Cys has been seen in the homozygous state in one subject in gnomAD, the authors comment that pathogenicity of this variant is unclear. They further suggest that this may be a hypomorphic variant. Incomplete penetrance or development of manifestations when this variant is in trans with a more severe one, are among the hypotheses discussed.

All 5 individuals as well as the 3 previously reported ones, demonstrated a highly overlapping phenotype consisting of hypotonia (8/8), cognitive delays (8/8), cataracts (8/8) with - in some cases - additional ophthalmologic findings as well as some common facial/other features.

INTS1 encodes the integrator complex subunit 1 (the complex comprises 14 subunits).

Homozygous Ints1 mutation in mice results in embryonic lethality at the blastocyst stage [PMID cited: 17544522 - http://www.informatics.jax.org/marker/MGI:1915760]

In zebrafish ints1 is expressed in the developing eye. By targeting of ints1 using CRISPR/Cas9, the authors produced zebrafish with biallelic LoF variants. Mutant larvae show abnormal lens morphology supporting involvement of INTS1 in eye and lens development.
--------------
INTS1 is not associated with any phenotype in OMIM, nor in G2P.
This gene is included in gene panels for intellectual disability offered some by diagnostic laboratories.
--------------
As a result, INTS1 could be considered for inclusion in the ID panel as green (or amber).
