Bilateral congenital or childhood onset cataracts v2.98 VPS4A Ivone Leong Tag for-review was removed from gene: VPS4A.
Bilateral congenital or childhood onset cataracts v2.98 VPS4A Ivone Leong commented on gene: VPS4A
Bilateral congenital or childhood onset cataracts v2.97 VPS4A Ivone Leong Source Expert Review Green was added to VPS4A.
Rating Changed from Amber List (moderate evidence) to Green List (high evidence)
Bilateral congenital or childhood onset cataracts v2.62 VPS4A Arina Puzriakova Added comment: Comment on mode of inheritance: Setting MOI to 'Monoallelic' as only one biallelic case reported to date, and patients with biallelic variants would still be picked up by the Genomics England pipeline.
Bilateral congenital or childhood onset cataracts v2.62 VPS4A Arina Puzriakova Mode of inheritance for gene: VPS4A was changed from MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted
Bilateral congenital or childhood onset cataracts v2.61 VPS4A Arina Puzriakova Classified gene: VPS4A as Amber List (moderate evidence)
Bilateral congenital or childhood onset cataracts v2.61 VPS4A Arina Puzriakova Added comment: Comment on list classification: At least 5 different variants reported in 10 unrelated individuals with a comparable phenotype, including congenital/early-onset cataracts in 6/10 cases. Pathogenicity is supported by functional data.

There are sufficient cases to promote this gene to Green at the next GMS panel update (added 'for-review' tag)
Bilateral congenital or childhood onset cataracts v2.61 VPS4A Arina Puzriakova Gene: vps4a has been classified as Amber List (Moderate Evidence).

- PMID: 33186545 (2020) - Six unrelated individuals with de novo missense variants (c.850A>T, c.850A>G, c.616G>A) affecting the ATPase domain of VPS4A. Clinical features include severe DD and profound ID (6/6), hypotonia (5/6), microcephaly (6/6), dystonia (5/6), congenital cataracts (4/5), epilepsy (3/6), anaemia (3/6 - dyserythropoietic in 2), and structural brain abnormalities including cerebellar hypoplasia (5/6) or severe cerebral atrophy (1/6). Some functional data indicating a dominant-negative effect.

- PMID: 33186543 (2020) - Three unrelated individuals with congenital dyserythropoietic anaemia, severe neurodevelopmental delay, and dystonia. Two patients harboured different de novo variants (c.850A>T, c.608G>A) in the ATPase domain, while the third had a homozygous alteration (c.83C>T) occurring in the N-terminal microtubule interacting and trafficking domain of VPS4A. The first two individuals congenital microcephaly with brain MRI showing white matter and cerebral volume loss, thin corpus callosum, and ponto-cerebellar atrophy. One individual also displayed a seizure disorder and congenital cataracts. The case with the biallelic variant presented with a milder hematologic phenotype and had macrocephaly (rather than microcephaly) and delayed white matter myelination. Functional studies support pathogenicity.

- PMID: 33460484 (2021) - One child with a a severe neurodevelopmental disorder and congenital haemolytic anaemia but no overt sign of dyserythropoiesis, associated with a de novo variant (c.850A>T) in VPS4A. Other features include microcephaly (-2.5 SD), choreodystonic movements, and bilateral cataract. Brain MRI showed cerebral atrophy, thin dysplastic corpus callosum, basal ganglia atrophy, brainstem hypoplasia, cerebellar hypoplasia and dysplasia
