Added comment: A recent study suggests that heterozygous PRPF8 variants are associated with a syndromic form of DD/ID, in some cases epilepsy with heterogeneous other clinical findings. However the authors acknowledge that not all variants within their cohort may be pathogenic (5 VUSs using ACMG criteria) and that conclusive evidence may necessitate functional studies.

Heterozygous variants (typically clustering in exon 42) have been reported to cause a non-syndromic form of RP with variable expressivity and incomplete penetrance (Retinitis pigmentosa 13, MIM # 600059) .

Overall consider inclusion with amber rating.

------

O'Grady et al. (2022 - PMID: 35543142) describe the phenotype of 14 unrelated individuals with heterozygous, mostly de novo, missense and pLoF variants in PRPF8.

Nearly all had some degree of global developmental delay or ID (13/14). 6/14 had a diagnosis of ASD. Seizures were reported in 4 or 5 subjects. Other features included short stature (6/14), abnormal gait, cardiac anomalies and somewhat overlapping facial features (11/14). Ages ranged from 4 - 19 years (median : 9y).

PRPF8 encodes a component of the spliceosomes which in turn are involved in removal of introns from mRNA precursors. The gene is ubiquitously expressed with expression within brain being highest in cerebral cortex, basal ganglia and cerebellum (Refs. provided).

Individuals were investigated with exome sequencing (12/14) or an autism/ID panel of >2500 genes (likely application of virtual panel on exome data).

13 individuals harbored a missense SNV and 1 further had a frameshift variant. In 12 individuals the variant had occurred de novo. 1 individual had inherited the variant from a possibly mosaic parent, while for 1 further a single parental sample was available.

PRPF8 is intolerant to both missense (Z = 8.28) and pLoF variants (pLI : 1). Variants in 5 individuals were formally classified as VUS while 2 variants were present in gnomAD.

Additional findings (CNVs/SNVs) were reported, in some cases possibly of relevance.

As the authors discuss, heterozygous pathogenic missense SNVs cause (and account for ~2-3% of) non-syndromic AD retinitis pigmentosa with variable expressivity and incomplete penetrance. Variants for this phenotype are typically missense - although nonsense ones have also been reported - clustering within ex42 (of 43) encoding the MPN domain (aa 2103-2335 / NP_006436) and weakening interaction with 2 other spliceosomal proteins.

Variants in the present study occurred throughout the gene. Although not universally assessed within the cohort, only one participant had RP (in this case variant within the MPN domain).

There were no variant studies performed.

Animal models: the authors cite a study by Graziotto et al (2011 - PMID: 20811066) where knock-in mice for a missense variant in ex42 displayed defects of the retinal pigment epithelium. A zebrafish ko model also cited (Keightley et al, 2013 - PMID: 23714367) displayed widespread apoptosis in brain and spinal cord.

The authors cite a previous bioinformatic study identifying PRPF8 as a major hub connecting gene-interaction networks for NDDs (Casanova et al, 2018 - PMID: 30420816) as well as 2 studies demonstrating enrichment of variants in individuals with NDDs compared to controls (da Silva Montenegro et al, 2020 - PMID: 31696658, Karczewski et al, 2020 - PMID: 32461654).
