Early onset or syndromic epilepsy
Gene: SZT2
AR Early infantile epileptic encephalopathy - early onset refractory seizures - Basel-Vanagaite et al 2013 - 2 unrelated patients had hom truncating SZT2 mutations. Vanderver et al 2016 - A patient with leukodystrohy also found to be compound het for 2 SZT2 variants - no mention of epilepsy, Tsuchida et al, 2017 - 7 patients from 5 families with EIEE (includes Basel Vangagaite cases, Venkatesen et al Vanderver et al and Falcone et al) all hom/compound her. No seizures mentioned for Vanderver and Venkatesen individuals.Created: 6 Aug 2019, 8:31 p.m. | Last Modified: 6 Aug 2019, 8:31 p.m.

Comment on list classification: Updated rating from Red to Green based on new publications, and after agreement from Helen Brittain. 3 cases (PMID:23932106s and 28893434) reach the threshold for green rating, and variants are predicted loss of function. Although the severity varies, patients do have seizures and ID.Created: 31 Oct 2017, 1:16 p.m.
2 unrelated cases of early-onset epileptic encephalopathy in PMID:23932106 (2013). Plus a 4yr old girl in PMID:28893434 (2017) with DD and seizures from two years of age. Phenotype is variable between patients, with spectrum of seizures and severity of ID/DD.Created: 31 Oct 2017, 1:10 p.m.
