| Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v3.1561 | CDK9 |
Konstantinos Varvagiannis changed review comment from: There are 4 studies reporting on the phenotype associated with biallelic CDK9 pathogenic variants. DD and ID are part of the phenotype which appears to be relatively consistent. CDK9 encodes Cyclin-dependent kinase 9. There are 4 missense variants reported to date - one of which recurrent (NM_001261.3:c.673C>T / p.Arg225Cys) - with studies for 3 variants suggesting a LoF effect (loss of kinase activity) [Ref4]. Animal models also provide some supporting evidence [discussed Ref4]. Consider inclusion in the current panel (probably with green rating) as well as other possibly relevant ones. Details provided below. [1]----- Shaheen et al (2016 - PMID: 26633546) studied patients with apparently novel phenotypes with positive family history consistent with AR inheritance mode due to consanguinity. After autozygome analysis the authors determined the shared autozygome (ROH >1 Mb / Axiom SNP Chip) in families with multiple affected individuals. This analysis was followed by whole exome/genome sequencing. Using this approach, they managed to map the phenotype of interest to a single novel locus in some families, which was also the case in a large consanguineous family with 2 similarly affected cousins (11DG0424, 11DG1630). Within a 20 Mb region of homozygosity, followed by WES in a single affected individual and Sanger confirmation with compatible segregation studies in parents and 10 unaffected sibs, the authors identified a homozygous CDK9 missense SNV (NM_001261.3:c.673C>T / p.Arg225Cys) responsible for this phenotype. In silico predictions were concordant in favor of a deleterious effect. Features (detailed in the suppl.) included global DD (2/2), severe ID (1/1), cerebral and (mild) cerebellar atrophy (2/2), microcephaly (2/2), ocular anomalies (2/2, coloboma in 2/2, congenital cataract 2/2, etc), heart defects (2/2, PDA in both, ASD), variable genitourinary anomalies (2/2 incl. hydronephrosis, VUR reflux/recurrent UTIs, kidney atrophy, abn. genitalia in 1), abnormalities of the limbs (2/2, bilateral talipes equinovarus : 2/2) or the skeleton (1/2 - butterfly vertebrae). One was reported to have some degree of growth delay (<10th centile for length, <5th for weight and OFC). There was no hearing defect reported (large ears in 1/2). Overall, the authors used the term CHARGE-like phenotype. [2]----- Maddirevula et al (2019 - PMID: 30237576) performed autozygome and exome analysis of individuals with suspected Mendelian disorders. They reported 3 individuals (18DG0161, 18DG0162, 18DG0165) born to 3 different consanguineous families (information in fig2) from Qatar, homozygous for CDK9 p.Arg225Cys. All presented a CHARGE-like phenotype with features ophtalmologic findings (3/3 - abnormal ERG in one, congenital cataracts the other, visual impairment in the 3rd, though NO evidence of coloboma in at least two), heart defect (2/3 had VSD), choanal atresia (3/3), retarded growth/FTT (1/3) or global DD (3/3 - in suppl. table 1), (genito)urinary anomalies (1/3 - dysplastic atrophic kidney) or ear anomalies (3/3 - preauricular tags 2/3, bilateral deafness 1/3, bilat.ossicular anomalies 1/3). Other features incl. epilepsy (2/3), brain MRI abnormalities (2/3), facial asymmetry in one, vertebral segmentation defect in 1/3. [3]----- Hu et al (2019 - PMID: 29302074) performed WES/WGS in 404 consanguineous families from Iran, having 2 or more offspring with ID. In this context they reported 2 females and a male (III:1,4,3 belonging to fam. M9100018 - details in suppl. text) born to first cousin parents from Iran. Features included DD (3/3 - walking at 3y, words at 4y), moderate ID (3/3 - WAIS-IV IQ of 40-43), short stature (3/3 below 3rd %le). Vision and hearing were normal. All three were homozygous for a missense SNV (NM_001261:c.280C>T, p.Arg94Cys) which was ultrarare in ExAC, with severa in silico tools in favor of a deleterious effect. The authors commented that CDK9 is the catalytic core of transcription elongation factor p-TEFb essential for transcription elongation of numerous genes, Cdk9/Cyclin T1 complex may participate in neuronal differentiation, CDK9-cyclinK in maintenance of genomic integrity, with the protein encoded also interacted with AF4/FMR2. In addition the gene was commented to have ubiquitous expression with high protein expression in glial and neuronal cells of the cortex (based on Uniprot and Human Protein Atlas). [4]----- Nishina et al (2021 - PMID: 33640901) described an 8 y.o. male with facial asymmetry, ear/hearing anomalies (microtia, preauricular tags, bilateral hearing loss), ocular/vision anomalies (blepharophimosis, lacrimal obstruction, eyelid dermoids, duane-like anomaly, congenital cataracts, retinal dystrophy), cleft lip and palate, abnormalities of the limbs (finger contractures with associated absence of creases, cutaneous syndactyly, etc). Other features included cardiac dysrhythmia and undescended testes. Development was delayed with associated ID (walking 3y, words 7y, at 10y: could count to 20, 4 word sentences). There was no evidence of coloboma or choanal atresia. Trio exome sequencing revealed that the child was compound htz for 2 missense SNVs (NM_001261.3:c.862G>A / p.Ala288Thr and c.907C>T /p.Arg303Cys) with Sanger confirmation. These were ultrarare/not present in gnomAD. Both lied in the protein kinase catalytic domain of CDK9, with high conservation across different species and in silico predictions in favor of deleterious effect. In vitro studies in HEK293 cells demonstrated that the kinase activity for both variants was significantly reduced compared to wt. Kinase activity was also reduced for the Arg225Cys variant (reported in Refs 1 & 2). The authors briefly discuss evidence from zebrafish (regulates larval morphogenesis incl. brain, heart, eye, blood vessels) and mouse models. In the latter complete LoF is lethal while heterozygous LoF is associated with abnormal morphology of heart, skin and epididymis (PMIDs cited by the authors : 27715402, 30100824).

Konstantinos Varvagiannis gene: MPP5 was added gene: MPP5 was added to Intellectual disability. Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: MPP5 was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, imprinted status unknown Publications for gene: MPP5 were set to 33073849 Phenotypes for gene: MPP5 were set to Global developmental delay; Intellectual disability; Delayed speech and language development; Developmental regression; Behavioral abnormality Penetrance for gene: MPP5 were set to unknown Review for gene: MPP5 was set to GREEN Added comment: Sterling et al (2020 - PMID: 33073849) provide information on the phenotype of 3 individuals with de novo MPP5 variants. Common features included global developmental delay, intellectual disability (3/3 - severe in 2/3), speech delay/regression (the latter in at least 2) and behavioral abnormalities. Variable other features were reported, among others microcephaly (1/3), abnormal vision (1/3 : CVI, retinal dystrophy, nystagmus), brain MRI abnormalities (2/3), late-onset seizures (1/3). These subjects displayed variable and non-specific dysmorphic features. All were investigated by exome sequencing (previous tests not mentioned). One subject was found to harbor a de novo mosaic (5/25 reads) stopgain variant, further confirmed by Sanger sequencing [NM_022474.4:c.1555C>T - p.(Arg519Ter). The specific variant is reported once in gnomAD (1/251338). Two de novo missense variants were identified in the remaining individuals [c.1289A>G - p.Glu430Gly / c.974A>C - p.His325Pro). All variants had in silico predictions in favor of a deleterious effect (CADD score >24). The authors comment that MPP5 encodes an apical complex protein with asymmetric localization to the apical side of polarized cells. It is expressed in brain, peripheral nervous system and other tissues. MPP5 is a member of the membrane-associated guanylate kinase family of proteins (MAGUK, p55 subfamily), determining cell polarity at tight junctions. Previous animal models suggest that complete Mpp5(Pals1) KO in mice leads to near absence of cerebral cortical neurons. Htz KO mice display reduction in size of cerebral cortex and hippocampus. The gene is expressed in proliferating cell populations of cerebellum and important for establishment cerebellar architecture. Conditional KO of Mpp5(Pals1) in retinal progenitor cells mimics the retinal pathology observed in LCA. [Several refs. provided] The authors studied a heterozygous CNS-specific Mpp5 KO mouse model. These mice presented microcephaly, decreased cerebellar volume and cortical thickness, decreased ependymal cells and Mpp5 at the apical surface of cortical vertrical zone. The proportion of cortical cells undergoing apoptotic cell death was increased. Mice displayed behavioral abnormalities (hyperactivity) and visual deficits, with ERG traces further suggesting retinal blindness. Overall the mouse model was thought to recapitulate the behavioral abnormalities observed in affected subjects as well as individual rare features such as microcephaly and abnormal vision. Haploinsufficiency (rather than a dominant negative effect) is favored as the underlying disease mechanism. This is also in line with a dose dependent effect observed in mice. Sources: Literature |

| Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v2.940 | TRPM3 | Rebecca Foulger Added comment: Comment on list classification: TRPM3 was added to the panel and rated Green by Konstantinos Varvagiannis based on PMID:31278393 (Dyment et al 2019). Although 8 probands were reported, 1 proband carries a VUS and an additional splice variant in DDB1. Therefore only variant is pathogenic, and this is missense, and de novo in all cases. The authors also note that heterozygous LOF variants in TRPM3 are observed in the general population. Not yet associated with a disorder in Gene2Phenotype or OMIM. Therefore have rated Amber and added 'watchlist' tag awaiting further cases or additional functional studies. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v2.938 | TRPM3 |
Konstantinos Varvagiannis changed review comment from: Dyment et al. (2019 - https://doi.org/10.1038/s41431-019-0462-x) report on 7 unrelated individuals with a recurrent de novo TRPM3 missense variant [NM_020952.4:c.2509G>A - NP_066003.3:p.(Val837Met)] as well as an additional individual with a further de novo missense variant [c.2810C>A or p.(Pro937Gln) - same ref. sequences]. Overlapping features included hypotonia (7/8 - in one case mixed tone abnormality), DD/ID (8/8 - all individuals at appropriate age - degree relevant), EEG-confirmed epilepsy (7/8). Autism-like features were observed in 4 (out of 6 for whom this information was reported). Other features were noted in a minority (or were private to certain) of these individuals. Different clinical types of seizures were reported incl. absence, generalized-toni-clonic, infantile spasms as well as subclinical ones. Onset was in infancy or early childhood. In all individuals the variant was found following trio exome sequencing. The first variant fulfilled ACMG criteria to be classified as pathogenic due to it's de novo occurrence, prevalence in affected individuals (>=6 affected individuals and in the same time) absence from population databases, in silico predictions in favour of pathogenicity (PS2, PS4_Moderate, PM2, PP3). The Pro937Gln variant is however classified as a VUS. The subject harboring this variant had an additional de novo variant in another gene (DDB1) not associated with any phenotype, to date. Several other genetic causes had previously been ruled out for most individuals by other investigations : aCGH was normal in all, FMR1 testing in 6 subjects, genes (PHF6, MECP2, MCT8) or smaller panels for ID (the latter in 3 subjects), mtDNA or testing of nuclear genes for mitochondrial disorders, etc. TRPM3 encodes transient receptor potential (TRP) cation channel, subfamily M, member 3. TRP channels are a superfamily of gated cation channels sensitive to various physical or chemical stimuli (Clapham 2003 - PMID: 14654832 cited) eg. temperature or pain. The gene is highly expressed in the brain in humans and other vertebrates (Grimm et al. 2003 - PMID : 12672799 and GTEx - https://gtexportal.org/home/gene/TRPM3). Animal models : In rat brain, expression is initially restricted to neurons but later - as myelination progresses - shifts to oligodendrocytes (cited : Hoffmann et al. 2010 - PMID: 20163522). Most subjects had normal brain MRI appart from one individual with nonspecific white matter hyperintensities and another with possible mild cerebral volume loss. Trpm3 -/- mice show attenuated nocifensive behavior after heat or dermal injection of pregnenolone sulfate. Heat or pain insensitivity was reported only for 2 individuals. Functional studies were not carried out, although some hypotheses are proposed following in silico modeling of the TRPM3 variants using an available structure for TRPM7. As discussed by Dyment et al., happloinsufficiency appears to be unlikely given the presence of LoF variants in ExAC/gnomAD (pLI of 0), some intragenic copy number variants in DGV. In addition, pathogenicity of deletions spanning only TRPM3 or additional proximal genes was not evident in 2 cases: - In the first case a exon 1-9 deletion was found in 2 brothers with Becker muscular dystrophy due to DMD intragenic duplication and autism/cognitive impairment though the TRPM3 deletion was found also in unaffected family members. The deletion was also found in unaffected relatives. A multiple hit hypothesis was hypothesized for this family. [Pagnamenta et al. 2011 - PMID: 21484199] - Kuniba et al. [2009 - PMID: 19343044] reported a 1.27-Mb deletion spanning TRPM3, KLF9, SMC5 and MAMDC2 in a patient with Kabuki syndrome working diagnosis. Segregation studies were however not possible. At the time, the molecular etiology of Kabuki syndrome (KMT2D/KDM6A) was not known. ----- TRPM3 is not associated with any phenotype in OMIM or G2P. This gene is included in panels for ID offered by some diagnostic laboratories (eg. GeneDx participating in the above study). ----- As a result, TRPM3 seems to fulfill criteria for inclusion in the ID/epilepsy panels probably as green (# of individuals, degree of ID relevant, EEG-confirmed epilepsy) or amber (if further functional evidence would be required).

TRP channels are a superfamily of gated cation channels sensitive to various physical or chemical stimuli (Clapham 2003 - PMID: 14654832 cited) eg. temperature or pain. The gene is highly expressed in the brain in humans and other vertebrates (Grimm et al. 2003 - PMID : 12672799 and GTEx - https://gtexportal.org/home/gene/TRPM3). Animal models : In rat brain, expression is initially restricted to neurons but later - as myelination progresses - shifts to oligodendrocytes (cited : Hoffmann et al. 2010 - PMID: 20163522). Most subjects had normal brain MRI appart from one individual with nonspecific white matter hyperintensities and another with possible mild cerebral volume loss. Trpm3 -/- mice show attenuated nocifensive behavior after heat or dermal injection of pregnenolone sulfate. Heat or pain insensitivity was reported only for 2 individuals. Functional studies were not carried out, although some hypotheses are proposed following in silico modeling of the TRPM3 variants using an available structure for TRPM7. As discussed by Dyment et al., happloinsufficiency appears to be unlikely given the presence of LoF variants in ExAC/gnomAD (pLI of 0), some intragenic copy number variants in DGV. In addition, pathogenicity of deletions spanning only TRPM3 or additional proximal genes was not evident in 2 cases: - In the first case a exon 1-9 deletion was found in 2 brothers with Becker muscular dystrophy due to DMD intragenic duplication and autism/cognitive impairment though the TRPM3 deletion was found also in unaffected family members. The deletion was also found in unaffected relatives. A multiple hit hypothesis was hypothesized for this family. [Pagnamenta et al. 2011 - PMID: 21484199] - Kuniba et al. [2009 - PMID: 19343044] reported a 1.27-Mb deletion spanning TRPM3, KLF9, SMC5 and MAMDC2 in a patient with Kabuki syndrome working diagnosis. Segregation studies were however not possible. At the time, the molecular etiology of Kabuki syndrome (KMT2D/KDM6A) was not known. ----- TRPM3 is not associated with any phenotype in OMIM or G2P. This gene is included in panels for ID offered by some diagnostic laboratories (eg. GeneDx participating in the above study). ----- As a result, TRPM3 seems to fulfill criteria for inclusion in the ID/epilepsy panels probably as green (# of individuals, degree of ID relevant, EEG-confirmed epilepsy) or amber (if further functional evidence would be required). [Please consider eligibility for inclusion in other possibly relevant panels eg. autism, etc]. Sources: Literature |

Konstantinos Varvagiannis gene: TRPM3 was added gene: TRPM3 was added to Intellectual disability. Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: TRPM3 was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, imprinted status unknown Publications for gene: TRPM3 were set to doi.org/10.1038/s41431-019-0462-x Phenotypes for gene: TRPM3 were set to Generalized hypotonia; Global developmental delay; Intellectual disability; Seizures; Autistic behavior Penetrance for gene: TRPM3 were set to unknown Mode of pathogenicity for gene: TRPM3 was set to Loss-of-function variants (as defined in pop up message) DO NOT cause this phenotype - please provide details in the comments Review for gene: TRPM3 was set to GREEN gene: TRPM3 was marked as current diagnostic Added comment: Dyment et al. (2019 - https://doi.org/10.1038/s41431-019-0462-x) report on 7 unrelated individuals with a recurrent de novo TRPM3 missense variant [NM_020952.4:c.2509G>A - NP_066003.3:p.(Val837Met)] as well as an additional individual with a further de novo missense variant [c.2810C>A or p.(Pro937Gln) - same ref. sequences]. Overlapping features included hypotonia (7/8 - in one case mixed tone abnormality), DD/ID (8/8 - all individuals at appropriate age - degree relevant), EEG-confirmed epilepsy (7/8). Autism-like features were observed in 4 (out of 6 for whom this information was reported). Other features were noted in a minority (or were private to certain) of these individuals. Different clinical types of seizures were reported incl. absence, generalized-toni-clonic, infantile spasms as well as subclinical ones. Onset was in infancy or early childhood. In all individuals the variant was found following trio exome sequencing. The first variant fulfilled ACMG criteria to be classified as pathogenic due to it's de novo occurrence, prevalence in affected individuals (>=6 affected individuals and in the same time) absence from population databases, in silico predictions in favour of pathogenicity (PS2, PS4_Moderate, PM2, PP3). The Pro937Gln variant is however classified as a VUS. The subject harboring this variant had an additional de novo variant in another gene (DDB1) not associated with any phenotype, to date. Several other genetic causes had previously been ruled out for most individuals by other investigations : aCGH was normal in all, FMR1 testing in 6 subjects, genes (PHF6, MECP2, MCT8) or smaller panels for ID (the latter in 3 subjects), mtDNA or testing of nuclear genes for mitochondrial disorders, etc. TRPM3 encodes transient receptor potential (TRP) cation channel, subfamily M, member 3.
