Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v3.726 FGF13 Arina Puzriakova Classified gene: FGF13 as Amber List (moderate evidence)
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v3.726 FGF13 Arina Puzriakova Added comment: Comment on list classification: New gene added by Zornitza Stark. Three variants (c.31C>T, c.41G>C, c.32G>C) identified by WES/WGS in seven individuals from five unrelated families who presented with severe infantile-onset seizures and severe-to-profound ID. Supportive functional data.

Sufficient number of unrelated cases with relevant phenotype; however, early-onset epilepsy represents the main feature of the disorder and ID appears to be a secondary manifestation (see supplemental note in PMID:33245860 for clinical details). Therefore, rating Amber on this panel but will add the FGF13 gene to 'Genetic epilepsy syndromes'
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v3.726 FGF13 Arina Puzriakova Gene: fgf13 has been classified as Amber List (Moderate Evidence).
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v3.725 FGF13 Arina Puzriakova Phenotypes for gene: FGF13 were changed from Intellectual disability; epilepsy to Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy; Intellectual disability; Infantile-onset seizures
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v3.724 FGF13 Arina Puzriakova Mode of inheritance for gene: FGF13 was changed from X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, biallelic mutations in females to X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, monoallelic mutations in females may cause disease (may be less severe, later onset than males)

Added comment: Two sibling pairs and three unrelated males reported who presented in infancy with intractable focal seizures and severe developmental delay. The variants were located in the N-terminal domain of the A isoform of FGF13/FHF2 (FHF2A). The X-linked FHF2 gene (also known as FGF13) has alternative first exons which produce multiple protein isoforms that differ in their N-terminal sequence. The variants were located at highly conserved residues in the FHF2A inactivation particle that competes with the intrinsic fast inactivation mechanism of Nav channels. Functional characterization of mutant FHF2A co-expressed with wild-type Nav1.6 (SCN8A) revealed that mutant FHF2A proteins lost the ability to induce rapid-onset, long-term blockade of the channel while retaining pro-excitatory properties. These gain-of-function effects are likely to increase neuronal excitability consistent with the epileptic potential of FHF2 variants.
