Green List (high evidence)

Comment on list classification: There is sufficient evidence to promote this gene to Green at the next GMS panel update based on 27 individuals from 25 families identified in PMID: 40965981 with start-loss (89%) or missense (11%) variants, confirmed de novo in 23/27 (plus 2 sibs with variant inherited from symptomatic mother, and segregation data unavailable in 2 others).

DD was noted in 78%, behavioural problems in 30%, and ID in 26%, generally mild to moderate. Although ID is only seen in a subset of cases, inclusion on this panel would be beneficial in cases where other features such as skeletal abnormalities are less prominent or non existent. Inclusion on this panel would also ensure inclusion on the Hypotonic infant super panel which is plausibly relevant to younger patients with this condition.

Publications

Ronnie Wright (North West GLH)

Green List (high evidence)

One publication (PMID: 40965981). 27 individuals from 25 families, predominantly with start loss variants (recurring de novo).

'Affected individuals presented with a syndromic neurodevelopmental disorder and variable skeletal dysplasia with disproportionate short-limbed short stature. Intellectual functioning ranged from normal to moderately delayed'
'Additional clinical features included skin, nail, and hair anomalies (52%), dental anomalies (37%), ophthalmological findings (44%), and cardiovascular defects (22%)'

For the start loss variants, re-initiation of translation at p.Met31 is shown to be occurring by authors, and leads to reduced nuclear localization, enhanced cytoplasmic retention and increased protein stability.

Authors showed a recognizable methylation episignature.

Cases in CVA (incl 1 North West GLH), at least some of which share syndromic phenotypic features consistent with the literature report.
