Comment on mode of inheritance: Changed mode of inheritance from Monoallelic to Both monoallelic and biallelic based on evidence provided by expert review.
Created: 27 Feb 2019, 2:38 p.m.
Comment on publications: PMID: 30217758 reports on 2 de novo splice variants found in 3 patients from 2 unrelated families who have ID and ASD. One variant was found in a boy with mild ID and autism traits. In vitro studies found that this variant reduced KDM5B mRNA production. The sister of this affected patient did not have carry this splice variant but she also presented with mild ID and epilepsy. The authors suggest that a variant in another gene may be linked to these phenotypes and that KDM5B haploinsufficiency cannot explain the ID/ASD phenotype.

The other variant was found in a pair of monozygotic twins who both presented with global developmental delay, poor language and ASD. In vitro studies of this second variant showed that it causes the production of an abnormal transcript which is degraded by nonsense-mediated decay.

Initially reported in a publication with participation of DDD study (PMID: 29276005) it is further demonstrated in a recent DDD article (PMID: 30409806) that BOTH biallelic as well as monoallelic variants are associated with intellectual disability.

In the latter publication 4 individuals with ID and biallelic mutations in KDM5B are reported. 3 of these patients had biallelic loss-of-function (LoF) variants while a fourth one was compound heterozygous for a splice variant and a large deletion disrupting KDM5B.

KDM5B seems to be tolerant to LoF variants (pLI of 5x10-5 - in gnomAD o/e ratio for LoF variants : 0.45) while some LoF variants were transmitted by - most commonly - unaffected parents.

The authors found no evidence for :
- A parent-of-origin bias suggestive of imprinting.
- Possibility of de novo variants occuring as second hits and/or missed second variants in the dominant cases (as they comment this may have been the case for only 2 individuals).
- Certain LoF variants escaping nonsense mediated decay.
- Modifying variants in other genes.

Overall incomplete penetrance for heterozygous LoF variants and complete for biallelic LoF variants is favored as a plausible mechanism.

In the article it is not clear whether the individuals with biallelic variants present with more severe intellectual disability. Based on the initial article (PMID: 29276005) reporting on 3 of the (4 total) DDD participants published in the latter study, this seems to be unlikely (1 with severe and 2 with moderate ID).

As a result the mode of inheritance should probably be modified.
