Comment on list classification: Updated rating from Grey to Green. 2 Green reviews plus sufficient unrelated cases of ciliogenesis phenotypes (PMIDs:26044572, 28475963). Role in ciliogenesis supported by functional assays and zebrafish model (PMID:26044572).Created: 16 Oct 2018, 3:13 p.m.
Zebrafish ciliopathy model demonstrated in PMID:26044572 and functional evidence that loss of TCTEX1D2 impairs retrograde intraflagellar transport in humans.Created: 16 Oct 2018, 3:11 p.m.
PMID:26044572 (Schmidts et al 2015) performed whole exome sequencing of 69 individuals from 60 families clinically diagnosed with JATD, and identified a homozygous consensus splice variant (c.113+2C>G) in TCTEX1D2 from a consanguineous Turkish family. Additional analysis of further JATD/SRPS cases found a compound heterozygous TCTEX1D2 variant in a non-consanguineous French family comprising a nonsense (c.262C>T; p.Arg88*) and a deletion-insertion frameshift (c.100delinsCT; p.Val34Leufs*12).
The authors also identified a >10-kb homozygous deletion in two affected siblings (UCL4 II.6 and II.8) from a consanguineous Arabic family that removes exon 1–2 of TCTEX1D2 (plus exons from neighbouring TM4SF19 gene). The deletion was also detected in 2 apparently unaffected sibs, indicating reduced penetrance.Created: 16 Oct 2018, 3:11 p.m.
Zschocke et al 2017 (PMID:28475963) identified two siblings from a consanguineous Turkish family with defects suggestive of ciliary dysfunction (the girl who died in utero likely had Jeune syndrome). Exome sequencing identified a homozygous intragenic deletion in TCTEX1D2. Ciliary function tests showed mild irregulatories of motile cilia.Created: 16 Oct 2018, 3:06 p.m.
