Ataxia and cerebellar anomalies - narrow panel v8.81 SKOR2 Ida Ertmanska changed review comment from: Comment on list classification: There are more than 3 unrelated individuals with biallelic SKOR2 variants and childhood onset ataxia and /or evidence of cerebellar anomalies on MRI. Hence, this gene should be promoted to Green at the next update.; to: Comment on list classification: There are more than 3 unrelated individuals reported with biallelic SKOR2 variants and childhood onset ataxia and /or evidence of cerebellar anomalies on MRI. Hence, this gene should be promoted to Green at the next update.

Patient P15 - 10yo female, consanguineous Turkish parents; she presented with neonatal hypotonia and psychomotor delay; at age 10, she had scoliosis, nystagmus, mild ID, and a nonprogressive ataxia with ataxic gait. She was homozygous for SKOR2 variant NM_001278063.1: c.2750C>G; p.Ser917*. Cerebellar dysplasia seen on brain MRI.

9 patients from 2 unrelated consanguineous Iranian families:
Family 1 - 8 affected individuals homozygous for SKOR2 c.374G>C, p.Arg125Pro variant; ataxia present in 6/8 individuals, cerebellar hypoplasia in 8/8. Other phenotypes: scoliosis (5/8), strabismus (4/8), and other more variable features.
Family 2 - affected 6yo female proband homozygous for SKOR2 c.1271_1274del, p.Lys424Argfs*71 variant; she had strabismus, hypotonia, cerebellar hypoplasia, and osteomalacia, but no ataxia reported.

Report of eight individuals from five unrelated families (from Iraq, Turkey, Pakistan, Morocco, and South East Asia) with biallelic variants in SKOR2 associated with a phenotypic spectrum of cerebellar hypoplasia, microcephaly, ataxia, developmental delays and intellectual disability. Disease with childhood-onset, consanguinity reported in 7/8 individuals. Ataxic gait noted in 4 individuals, generally delayed walking age (>2 years in 6 cases).
Intellectual disability was present in 5/5 individuals assessed (4 mild, IQ = 55-58, and 1 case with severe ID). Cerebellar anomalies noted on brain MRI in 6/6 patients, including cerebellar hypoplasia /atrophy in 4 cases. Scoliosis / kyphosis noted in 3 patients.
