Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v3.663 ITFG2 Arina Puzriakova Publications for gene: ITFG2 were set to 28397838; https://doi.org/10.1038/s41525-020-00150-z
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v3.662 ITFG2 Arina Puzriakova Classified gene: ITFG2 as Amber List (moderate evidence)
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v3.662 ITFG2 Arina Puzriakova Added comment: Comment on list classification: New gene added by Konstantinos Varvagiannis. Rating Amber as ITFG2 can only be classified as a possible candidate gene based present evidence. Clinical and pedigree details are limited and there is no supporting functional data. Additional cases required to corroborate this gene-disease association.

Added comment: ITFG2 was suggested to be a candidate gene for autosomal recessive ID in the study by Harripaul et al (2018 - PMID: 28397838). The authors performed microarray and exome sequencing in 192 consanguineous families and identified a homozygous ITGF2 stopgain variant (NM_018463.3:c.472G>T / p.Glu158*) along with 3 additional variants segregating with ID within an investigated family (PK51).

Cheema et al (2020 - https://doi.org/10.1038/s41525-020-00150-z) report briefly on a male, born to consanguineous parents presenting with NDD, seizures, regression and ataxia. There was a similarly affected female sibling. Evaluation of ROH revealed a homozygous ITFG2 nonsense variant [NM_018463.3:c.361C>T / p.(Gln121*)]. Families in this study were investigated by trio WES or WGS.

Evaluation of data of the same lab revealed 3 additional unrelated subjects with overlapping phenotypes, notably NDD and ataxia. These individuals were - each - homozygous for pLoF variants [NM_018463.3:c.848-1G>A; NM_018463.3:c.704dupC, p.(Ala236fs), NM_018463.3:c.1000_1001delAT, p.(Ile334fs)].

As discussed in OMIM, ITFG2 encodes a subunit of the KICSTOR protein complex, having a role in regulating nutrient sensing by MTOR complex-1 (Wolfson et al 2017 - PMID : 28199306).

Please consider inclusion in the ID panel with amber rating, pending further details.
