Green List (high evidence)

Comment on list classification: As reviewed by Frances Elmslie, PMID:36669495 reported an additional case with compound heterozygous variants (identified via trio RNA-Seq) and presenting with a neurodevelopmental disorder involving mild intellectual disability.

Hence, this gene can be promoted to green rating with the current evidence (three unrelated cases and functional studies) in the next GMS update.

Green List (high evidence)

Two papers from 2013 and 2014 (Capo-Chichi et al and Alfaiz et al) described two separate consanguineous families with homozygous variants in this gene. Both provided functional evidence for pathogenicity demonstrating constitutive activation of the mTORC1 complex. In both papers, 2 children were affected and the variants segregated with the phenotype. The individuals described in the second paper had a more complex phenotype which could potentially have an alternative cause. A further paper of unsolved patients with neurodevelopmental disorders identified compound heterozygous variants in another individual with macrocephaly and ID (Dekker et al 2023), again providing functional evidence for causation. A knock out mouse model recapitulated the human phenotype (Schrotter et al 2022).

Comment on list classification: Updated rating from Grey to Amber. Gene added to panel and reviewed Amber by Konstantinos Varvagiannis. Currently only 2 unrelated ID cases from 2 publications (PMID:23687350 Capo-Chichi et al 2013 and PMID:24515783 Alfaiz et al 2014). TBC1D7 is not currently associated with a phenotype in DD-Gene2Phenotype. Therefore rated Amber awaiting further cases.

PMID 23687350 reports 2 individuals from a consanguineous family with intellectual disability and megalencephaly. Both individuals were homozygous for a frameshift variant in TBC1D7. A further report (PMID 24515783) describes two sisters born to Italian parents from distant villages, homozygous for a TBC1D7 frameshift variant. Both children presented a similar phenotype consisting of mild intellectual disability, macrocrania, patellar dislocation as well as celiac disease.
