Green List (high evidence)

Comment on list classification: There is enough evidence for this gene to be rated GREEN at the next major review - cognitive impairment has been reported in more than 3 unrelated surviving patients.

Associated with phenotype in OMIM and probable for Leigh syndrome with secondary deficiency for pyruvate and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase in G2P.

LIPT1 deficiency, resulting from biallelic variants, is associated with developmental delay, epilepsy, and broad metabolic abnormalities. To date, five unrelated families have been reported with at least one affected child.

PMID: 24341803 (2013) - In a boy with LIPT1 deficiency, exome sequencing revealed two compound heterozygous variants (c.875C>G and c.535A>G). Psychomotor development was delayed from birth, but sudden further regression occurred at 18 months. He could not speak but understood simple orders. He was otherwise fully conscious, alert, and he could smile, laugh and follow with eyes. Supporting functional data, including a yeast model.

PMID: 29681092 (2018) – Compound heterozygous variants (c.212C>T and c.539T>C) identified in a male with seizures, severe lactic acidosis, and failure to thrive. Initially he was reportedly developmentally normal; however, due to subsequent neurodevelopmental regression, he had global developmental delays by 21-months-of-age.

PMID 31042466 (2019) – In an 8-year-old female with developmental delay, seizures, and lactic acidosis, WES revealed two compound heterozygous variants (c.875C>G, c.131A>G). Two older sibs died of a similar condition at 7 months and 3 years. Sequencing was not possible in these individuals; however, a healthy sibling did not carry either variant. Functional analysis in patient-derived fibroblasts and mice confirmed LIPT1 deficiency.

In two unrelated families, the phenotype resulted in early infant death, and therefore ID could not be assessed:
PMID: 24256811 (2014) – compound heterozygous missense variants (c.212C>T and c.292C>G) were identified in a female that died on the ninth day of life.
PMID: 27247813 (2016) – compound heterozygous nonsense variants (c.806G>A and c.980T>G) detected in two sibs who both died on the first day of life. A third sibling, who did not harbour these variants, was healthy and thriving at 12 months of life.
