| Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v2.584 | ZBTB11 |
Konstantinos Varvagiannis gene: ZBTB11 was added gene: ZBTB11 was added to Intellectual disability. Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: ZBTB11 was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal Publications for gene: ZBTB11 were set to 29893856; 28382966 Phenotypes for gene: ZBTB11 were set to Intellectual disability Penetrance for gene: ZBTB11 were set to Complete Review for gene: ZBTB11 was set to AMBER Added comment: Fattahi et al. (PMID: 29893856) report on 9 individuals from 2 broader consanguineous pedigrees with biallelic ZBTB11 mutations. Features in the first family (from Iran) consisted of moderate ID, microcephaly, ataxic gait, and spasticity with MRI findings of cerebellar atrophy and ventriculomegaly. Individuals from the second family (from Pakistan) presented with moderate ID and variable features. Homozygosity for missense ZBTB11 variants, private to each family was shown (NM_014415.3:c.2185C>T / p.H729Y and c.2640T>G / p.H880Q for the first and second family respectively). As the authors note, ZBTB11 is predicted to be a zinc finger transcriptional regulator and one of the hypotheses emitted suggests possible disruption of DNA binding. Functional studies performed demonstrated that the mutant proteins were excluded from the nucleolus where the (wt) protein localizes. Previous zebrafish models (PMID: 28382966) suggested CNS degeneration among other phenotypes in Zbtb11 mutants. Knockdown of the drosophila ZBTB11-ortholog (CkIIα-i1) resulted in recognizable shrinking of the mushroom body with significant reduction in the number of neurons compared to controls. Other Zinc Finger and BTB Domain-Containing proteins cause disorders with ID as a prominent feature (eg. ZBTB16, ZBTB20, etc.). ZBTB11 is not associated with any phenotype in OMIM nor in G2P. As a result, this gene can be considered for inclusion in this panel probably as amber (2 pedigrees only) or green (given the supportive functional studies). Sources: Literature |
