Malformations of cortical development v7.32 FSD1L Ida Ertmanska Classified gene: FSD1L as Amber List (moderate evidence)
Malformations of cortical development v7.32 FSD1L Ida Ertmanska Added comment: Comment on list classification: There are 5 families reported in literature with biallelic FSD1L variants and a severe neurodevelopmental phenotype, including consistent corpus callosum hypoplasia/agenesis, as well as variable presentation of cerebellar, brainstem & optic nerve hypoplasia. Based on available evidence, this gene should be promoted to Green for Malformations of cortical development at the next update.

Added comment: PMID: 41720098 Serpieri et al., 2026
Report of eleven individuals (including five fetuses) from six unrelated families harbouring biallelic FSD1L variants. Seq method: exome sequencing. Consanguinity was confirmed in 4/6 families, and suspected in the fifth.
Phenotype spectrum: severe intellectual disability (5/5 assessed from 3 families), epilepsy (5 individuals from 3 families), severe hydrocephalus (3 families), vision deficit due to optic nerve hypoplasia/atrophy (3 families), spastic tetraparesis (2 families) corpus callosum hypoplasia/agenesis on MRI (5/5 families assessed),

Variants detected - largely nonsense type:
Family A - homozygous c.409T>G (p.Leu137Val);
Family B - 3 affected fetuses homozygous for c.1411C>T (p.Gln471Ter);
Family C - sibs compound het for c.1228T>G (p.Phe410Val) and c.1251_1252insTAA (p.Thr418Ter);
Family D - affected individuals (1 fetal case) homozygous for c.1366G>C (p.Asp456His) - shown to impact splicing (r.406_442del), resulting in predicted p.Ser136LeufsTer19 change;
Family E - affected child with homozygous c.835C>T (p.Arg279Ter) change;
Family F - fetus homozygous for c.1260G>A (p.Trp420Ter);

Functional evidence: Fsd1l depletion in mouse embryos recapitulated the ventricular dilation observed in affected fetuses.

Report of 6 affected individuals from 4 families with retinitis pigmentosa. One individual underwent a full neurological evaluation, including brain neuroimaging, which revealed no evidence of central nervous system involvement.
FSD1L variants detected:
Family A: 2 sibs compound het for c.1049G>A (p.Arg350Gln) and c.1428del (p.Phe476Leufs∗22)
Family B: individual comp het for c.488G>A (p.Arg163His), c.488G>A & c.745C>T (p.Arg249∗)
Family C: 2 sibs compound het for c.488G>A (p.Arg163His) & c.226_227del (p.Ser77Argfs∗4)
Family D: individual compound het for c.1037_1038delinsT (p.Pro346Leufs∗8) and c.1025+624_1025+649del
Sibs from family A had mild neurological involvement (mild ID, spastic diplegia in one sibling).
Authors note that "specific combination and functional severity of the two alleles likely determines the clinical outcome", with non-LoF variants causing a milder effect (e.g., isolated retinal phenotype).

FSD1L is not yet associated with a phenotype in OMIM or Gene2Phenotype.
