Panel Version: 5.4
Comment on list classification: There is a sufficient number of cases to rate this gene Green at the next major review.

Profound delay in motor development is part of the phenotype, as well as dystonia, spasticity and dyskinesia.

- PMID: 32006098 - 6 individuals (from 5 families) with biallelic YIF1B truncating variants. Presenting features: hypotonia, failure to thrive, microcephaly (5/6), severe global DD and ID as well as features suggestive of a motor disorder including dystonia (5/6), spasticity (6/6), dyskinesia (5/5). Seizures were reported in 2 unrelated individuals (2/6). MRI abnormalities were observed in some with thin CC being a feature in 3.

Affected individuals were found to be homozygous for truncating variants (4/5 families being consanguineous). The following 3 variants were identified (NM_001039672.2) : c.186dupT or p.Ala64fs / c.360_361insACAT or p.Gly121fs / c.598G>T or p.Glu200*.

Yif1B KO mice demonstrate a disorganized Golgi architecture in pyramidal hippocampal neurons (Alterio et al 2015 - PMID: 26077767). Functional/network analysis of genes co-regulated with YIF1B based on available RNAseq data, suggest enrichment in genes important for nervous system development and function.
