Early onset or syndromic epilepsy
Gene: TRA2BThis gene is not currently associated with a disease phenotype in OMIM, but checked PMID:36549593 to make sure it is the same gene listed in the publication as on this panel and it is, so added the gene-checked tagCreated: 16 Oct 2023, 7:41 p.m. | Last Modified: 16 Oct 2023, 7:41 p.m.

Comment on list classification: There is sufficient evidence (7 unrelated cases) for rating this gene as GREEN in the next GMS review.Created: 1 Jun 2023, 3:04 p.m. | Last Modified: 1 Jun 2023, 3:04 p.m.

PMID:36549593 reported 12 individuals from 11 unrelated families identified with 11 different heterozygous variants in TRA2B gene. The variants arose de novo in 10 families, while the variant was inherited from father to son in one family. 6 variants were expected to disrupt the translation start site in exon 1 (start-loss variants), 3 were expected to disrupt the splicing process at the exon 2/3 boundary (splice-affecting variants), and the remaining 2 were expected to produce a premature stop codon (truncating variants).
These patients presented with a neurodevelopmental disorder comprising developmental delay/ intellectual disability (in all patients), axial or global hypotonia (10 patients), delayed motor milestones (all patients), behavioural issues (8 patients), speech impairment (9 patients), epilepsy (7 patients, initial presentation as infantile spasms in 6 and unclassified epileptic encephalopathy in 1), brain abnormalities (10 patients) and microcephaly (5 patients).
In addition, functional studies in mice showed that heterozygous knockout mice developed normal, while complete knockout mice cannot develop embryonically.
This gene has already been associated with phenotypes in Gene2Phenotype (with 'moderate' rating in the DD panel), but not in OMIM.
