Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v3.1564 TMEM94 Eleanor Williams Tag gene-checked tag was added to gene: TMEM94.
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v2.816 TMEM94 Rebecca Foulger Classified gene: TMEM94 as Green List (high evidence)
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v2.816 TMEM94 Rebecca Foulger Added comment: Comment on list classification: TMEM94 was added to the ID panel by Konstantinos Varvagiannis, and rated Amber. Stephen et al., 2018 (PMID:30526868) identified biallelic (homozygous or compound het) variants in 10 patients from 6 unrelated families of different ethnic origins. All affected individuals manifested with delays in development and dysmorphic facial features. All variants were predicted to be truncating variants. There is a question from Konstantinos over whether the phenotypes fall under the scope of the ID panel since the authors refer to ID in the abstract, and speech delay, motor delay and learning disability in Table 1. Global developmental delay is reported for individual II.1 in Family 1, gross developmental delay is reported in Family 3, mild DD and an IQ of 58 is reported for individual II.2 in Family 5, and developmental delay was reported for Individual II.2 in Family 6. TMEM94 has now also been associated with a disorder in OMIM: Intellectual developmental disorder with cardiac defects and dysmorphic facies, 618316. Therefore on balance and because of sufficient numbers of general DD reported in PMID:30526868, I have included TMEM94 on the ID panel as a Green gene.
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v2.816 TMEM94 Rebecca Foulger Gene: tmem94 has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v2.815 TMEM94 Rebecca Foulger Phenotypes for gene: TMEM94 were changed from Global developmental delay; Intellectual disability; Abnormal heart morphology; Abnormality of head or neck to Intellectual developmental disorder with cardiac defects and dysmorphic facies, 618316; Global developmental delay; Intellectual disability; Abnormal heart morphology; Abnormality of head or neck

Added comment: Stephen et al. (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ajhg.2018.11.001) report on 10 individuals from 6 unrelated families with bi-allelic truncating TMEM94 variants. The common phenotype consisted of global DD/ID, similar facial features as well as the presence of congenital heart defects (in all but one).

Speech as well as motor delay and learning difficulties were universal features. ID is mentioned in the abstract, explicitly specified for one individual and implied for some of the rest.

Overall 6 different LoF variants are reported. Reduced expression was demonstrated while gene expression microarray and RNA sequencing expression studies demonstrated dysregulation of several essential genes. Using a CRISPR/Cas9 mouse model loss of Tmem94 was shown to be embryonically lethal with craniofacial, cardiac anomalies as well as abnormal neuronal migration pattern observed in homozygous mutant mice embryos.

TMEM94 is not associated with any phenotype in G2P nor in OMIM.

As a result this gene can be considered for inclusion in this panel probably as amber (or green).
