Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v3.1514 LMBRD2 Arina Puzriakova Tag for-review was removed from gene: LMBRD2.
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v3.1510 LMBRD2 Sarah Leigh commented on gene: LMBRD2: The rating of this gene has been updated following NHS Genomic Medicine Service approval.
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v3.1509 LMBRD2 Arina Puzriakova Source Expert Review Green was added to LMBRD2.
Rating Changed from Amber List (moderate evidence) to Green List (high evidence)
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v3.779 LMBRD2 Sarah Leigh Added comment: Comment on mode of pathogenicity: Both of the references for this entry suggest a gain-of-function action for LMBRD2 variants.
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v3.779 LMBRD2 Sarah Leigh Mode of pathogenicity for gene: LMBRD2 was changed from None to Loss-of-function variants (as defined in pop up message) DO NOT cause this phenotype - please provide details in the comments
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v3.461 LMBRD2 Arina Puzriakova changed review comment from: Comment on list classification: There is a sufficient number of unrelated cases to rate this gene GREEN at the next major review.; to: Comment on list classification: New gene added by Konstantinos Varvagiannis. Rating Amber but there is a sufficient number of unrelated cases with the relevant phenotype to rate this gene GREEN at the next major review.

Added comment: You may consider inclusion with green (13 individuals with dn missense SNVs overall, overlapping features for 10 with available phenotype / a recurring variant has been identified in 2 different studies) or amber rating (role of the gene not known, no variant studies, animal model probably not available).

► Malhotra et al (2020 - PMID: 32820033) report on 10 unrelated individuals with de novo missense LMBRD2 variants.

Features included DD (9/10), ID (6/8 of relevant age), microcephaly (7/10), seizures (5/10 - >=3 different variants), structural brain abnormalities (e.g. thin CC in 6/9), highly variable ocular abnormalities (5/10) and dysmorphic features in some (7/10 - nonspecific).

All had variable prior non-diagnostic genetic tests (CMA, gene panel, mendeliome, karyotype). WES/WGS revealed LMBRD2 missense variants, in all cases de novo. A single individual had additional variants with weaker evidence of pathogenicity.

5 unique missense SNVs and 2 recurrent ones (NM_001007527:c.367T>C - p.Trp123Arg / c.1448G>A - p.Arg483His) were identified. These occurred in different exons. Variants were not present in gnomAD and all had several in silico predictions in favor of a deleterious effect.

There was phenotypic variability among individuals with the same variant (e.g. seizures in 1/3 and microchephaly in 2/3 of those harboring R483H).

The gene has a pLI of 0 (although o/e ranges from 0.23 to 0.55), %HI of 15.13 and z-score of 2.27. The authors presume that haploinsufficiency may not apply, and consider a gain-of-function/dominant-negative effect more likely.

As the authors comment LMBRD2 (LMBR1 domain containing 2) encodes a membrane bound protein with poorly described function. It is widely expressed across tissues with notable expression in human brain (also in Drosophila, or Xenopus laevis). It displays high interspecies conservation.

It has been suggested (Paek et al - PMID: 28388415) that LMBRD2 is a potential regulator of β2 adrenoreceptor signalling through involvement in GPCR signalling.

► Kaplanis et al (2020 - https://doi.org/10.1101/797787) in a dataset of 31058 parent-offspring trios (WES) previously identified 3 individuals with developmental disorder, harboring c.1448G>A - p.Arg483His. These individuals (1 from the DDD study, and 2 GeneDx patients) appear in Decipher. [ https://decipher.sanger.ac.uk/ddd/research-variant/40e17c78cc9655a6721006fc1e0c98db/overview ]. The preprint by Kaplanis et al is cited by Malhotra et al, with Arg483His reported in 6 patients overall in both studies.
