Comment on list classification: Upgraded from Red to Amber but there are now sufficient unrelated cases with a relevant phenotype associated with various variants in this gene to rate as Green at the next GMS panel update.

Goodman et al., 2021 (PMID: 34314705) reported on 15 unrelated individuals with different variants in this gene (14 de novo, 1 mosaic in mother; 12 SNVs, 3 in-frame deletions, 1 deletion-insertion). All had GDD and all those who were assessed also had ID (9/9), ranging from mild to severe. ID also suspected but not investigated in another 3 cases. 6 had seizures starting between 1 and 2.5 years of age. 5 individuals had microcephaly (HC ranging -2.77 to -4.53 SD). Other less common features were also observed such as variable brain, gastrointestinal and ophthalmologic abnormalities.

Notably 6 individuals had additional SNVs/CNVs of uncertain significance, some of which include known ID genes (e.g. SETBP1, CUX2, ARMC9, PDE4D), but were discounted due to lack of explanation of the overall patient phenotype.

Some functional studies conducted in Drosophila demonstrated that patient-associated variants caused neurodevelopmental defects that were dosage and location (of variant within protein) dependent.

Zornitza Stark (Australian Genomics)

Green List (high evidence)

PMID: 34314705 - 15 individuals reported with de novo missense variants and a variety of clinical features including intellectual disability (9/9), speech impairment (15/15), motor impairment (15/15), ophthalmologic abnormalities (10/15), muscle tone abnormalities (11/15, primarily hypotonia), seizures (6/15, febrile to non-febrile), microcephaly (5/15) and MRI anomalies (7/13, 3/13 had cerebellar hypoplasia/dysplasia).

Null fly model was homozygous lethal, no obvious phenotypes in heterozygotes. Upregulated gene expression also resulted in lethality. Overexpression of some human variants in fly models resulted in "toxicity" and phenotypic defects, authors speculate two variants are GOF, 1 variant is LOF.

Ellen McDonagh (Genomics England Curator)

12.03.2018: Due to major updates completed (Phase 1, 2 and 3), this panel was promoted to Version 2 in order to reflect the major updates since November 2017 which have resulted in reviews for 836 genes added by Genomics England Curators and the Clinical Team, 130 new Green genes added to the interpretation pipeline (from 751 to 881 Green genes), and the gene total has increased from 1879 to 1927.
