Comment on list classification: Updated rating from Amber to Green: 5 unrelated patients with seizures amongst their phenotypes and heterozygous variants in KIF2A from PMIDs:
27896282, 27747449 and 23603762.
Created: 11 Dec 2018, 2:40 p.m.
PMID:23603762 (Poirier et al., 2013) report neontal onset seizures in two patients with heterozygous KIF2A variants: patient P462 with a heterozygous variant c.961C>G, p.H321D in KIF2A, and patient p147 with a heterozygous c.950G>A (p.S317N) variant in KIF2A (supplementary Table 4).
Created: 11 Dec 2018, 2:37 p.m.
PMID:27747449 (Cavallin et al 2017) detected two de novo p.Ser317Asn and p.His321Pro mutations in KIF2A in two patients with lissencephaly and microcephaly. Case 2 had tonic-clonic seizures and the c.962A>C (p.His321Pro) variant in KIF2A.

27896282 (Tian et al 2016) report a patient with lissencephaly, developmental delay, and infantile spasms, due to de novo heterozygous variant in KIF2A (p.Thr320Ile).
