Early onset or syndromic epilepsy v8.85 RPS6KC1 Achchuthan Shanmugasundram changed review comment from: PMID:41130203 (2025) reported the identification of biallelic RPS6KC1 variants (both homozygous and compound heterozygous) in 12 individuals from seven independent families and an unrelated 19-week old foetus through whole-exome sequencing. There were 10 different variants identified in total.

The patients presented with a spectrum of conditions including neurodevelopmental delay, subsequent intellectual impairment, hypotonia, spastic paraplegia, brain white matter loss, and dysmorphic features overlapping with Coffin-Lowry syndrome. The affected foetus had hydrops fetalis and prenatal lethality.

Epilepsy was reported in seven individuals from five families, which included isolated seizures in two unrelated patients and occasional seizures in two patients from a family.

Functional evidence is available from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), HAP1 RPS6KC1-knockdown cells and from Drosophila melanogaster model recapitulated the defects observed in individuals with RPS6KC1 variants.

This gene has been associated with relevant phenotypes in Gene2Phenotype (with 'moderate' rating on the DD panel), but not yet in OMIM (accessed on 05 January 2026).

Epilepsy was reported in seven individuals from five families, which included isolated seizures in two unrelated patients and occasional seizures in two patients from a family.

Functional evidence is available from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), HAP1 RPS6KC1-knockdown cells and from Drosophila melanogaster model, which recapitulated the defects observed in individuals with RPS6KC1 variants. Functional studies on PBMCs from the different individuals indicated diminished expression and phosphorylation of RPS6, impacting ribosomal protein synthesis, and a decrease in the known interactors PRDX3 and SPHK1, accompanied by marked repression of the mTOR/PI3K pathway. The study also detected a dysregulation of phosphoinositides and sphingoid base levels in plasma samples from the different individuals. Studies in HAP1 RPS6KC1-knockdown cells suggested that RPS6KC1 may regulate PRDX3 and SPHK1 activities by facilitating their endosome anchoring. In Drosophila melanogaster, the knockdown of CG7156, the RPS6KC1 ortholog, resulted in locomotor dysfunction, defective neuromuscular junctions, reduced lifespan, and decreased mTOR activity. Overexpression of mTOR in this model improved motor function and lifespan.

This gene has been associated with relevant phenotypes in Gene2Phenotype (with 'moderate' rating on the DD panel), but not yet in OMIM (accessed on 05 January 2026).

- PMID: 39824192 (2025) - biallelic variants in KICS2 in 11 individuals from 8 families with intellectual disability. All affected individuals had mild to severe intellectual disability, with 8 individuals also presenting with seizures and 3 (2 families) with hearing impairment. Functional studies in cell culture and zebrafish models provided evidence of pathogenicity, showing impaired mTORC1 regulation and effects on ciliogenesis.
