Severe microcephaly v2.27 YIF1B Arina Puzriakova Tag for-review was removed from gene: YIF1B.
Tag watchlist tag was added to gene: YIF1B.
Severe microcephaly v2.27 YIF1B Arina Puzriakova Tag for-review tag was added to gene: YIF1B.
Severe microcephaly v2.27 YIF1B Arina Puzriakova Classified gene: YIF1B as Amber List (moderate evidence)
Severe microcephaly v2.27 YIF1B Arina Puzriakova Added comment: Comment on list classification: Although 5/6 individuals described in PMID:32006098 had microcephaly, 4 of these share the same founder variant and the severity of microcephaly is not specified. Therefore, rating Amber until further cases are reported (added to watchlist).
Severe microcephaly v2.27 YIF1B Arina Puzriakova Gene: yif1b has been classified as Amber List (Moderate Evidence).
Severe microcephaly v2.20 YIF1B Zornitza Stark gene: YIF1B was added
gene: YIF1B was added to Severe microcephaly. Sources: Expert list
Mode of inheritance for gene: YIF1B was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Publications for gene: YIF1B were set to 32006098; 26077767
Phenotypes for gene: YIF1B were set to Central hypotonia; Failure to thrive; Microcephaly; Global developmental delay; Intellectual disability; Seizures; Spasticity; Abnormality of movement
Review for gene: YIF1B was set to GREEN
gene: YIF1B was marked as current diagnostic
Added comment: 6 individuals (from 5 families) with biallelic YIF1B truncating variants reported. Presenting features: hypotonia, failure to thrive, microcephaly (5/6), severe global DD and ID as well as features suggestive of a motor disorder (dystonia/spasticity/dyskinesia). 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 enrichement in in genes important for nervous system development and function.
