Early onset or syndromic epilepsy v4.95 STARD7 Sarah Leigh Tag STR tag was added to gene: STARD7.
Early onset or syndromic epilepsy v2.89 STARD7 Rebecca Foulger changed review comment from: Comment on list classification: Added as Amber awaiting clinical review as to whether gene and/or a new STR should be Green. In 158 affected individuals from 22 unrelated families with familial adult myoclonic epilepsy-2, Corbett et al. (2019, PMID:31664034) identified a heterozygous 5-bp repeat expansion (ATTTC)n in intron 1 of the STARD7 gene. Affected individuals had variable expansion of an endogenous (ATTTT)n repeat in addition to the insertion of an abnormal (ATTTC)n repeat.; to: Comment on list classification: Added gene as Amber based on advice from Genomics England Clinical team: the causative variants are the repeat expansion, and therefore the STR will be Green. In 158 affected individuals from 22 unrelated families with familial adult myoclonic epilepsy-2, Corbett et al. (2019, PMID:31664034) identified a heterozygous 5-bp repeat expansion (ATTTC)n in intron 1 of the STARD7 gene. Affected individuals had variable expansion of an endogenous (ATTTT)n repeat in addition to the insertion of an abnormal (ATTTC)n repeat.
Early onset or syndromic epilepsy v2.56 STARD7 Rebecca Foulger Phenotypes for gene: STARD7 were changed from Epilepsy, familial adult myoclonic, 2, 607876 to Epilepsy, familial adult myoclonic, 2, 607876; Familial adult myoclonic epilepsy-2; FAME-2
Early onset or syndromic epilepsy v2.55 STARD7 Rebecca Foulger Classified gene: STARD7 as Amber List (moderate evidence)
Early onset or syndromic epilepsy v2.55 STARD7 Rebecca Foulger Added comment: Comment on list classification: Added as Amber awaiting clinical review as to whether gene and/or a new STR should be Green.

Early onset or syndromic epilepsy v2.55 STARD7 Rebecca Foulger Gene: stard7 has been classified as Amber List (Moderate Evidence).
Early onset or syndromic epilepsy v2.54 STARD7 Rebecca Foulger gene: STARD7 was added
gene: STARD7 was added to Genetic epilepsy syndromes. Sources: Literature,Other
Mode of inheritance for gene: STARD7 was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, imprinted status unknown
Publications for gene: STARD7 were set to 11701600; 24114805; 31664034
Phenotypes for gene: STARD7 were set to Epilepsy, familial adult myoclonic, 2, 607876
Added comment: PMID:31664034. Corbett et al., 2019. In 158 affected individuals from 22 unrelated families with MIM:607876, Corbett et al. (2019) identified a heterozygous 5-bp repeat expansion, (ATTTC)n, in the STARD7 gene. The cohort included 2 families who had previously been identified as having an ins/del mutation in the ADRA2B gene (Guerrini et al., 2001 PMID:11701600, and De Fusco et al., 2014, PMID:24114805), suggesting the the ADRA2B allele is not causative.

OMIM disorder 'Epilepsy, familial adult myoclonic, 2, 607876' (previously associated with ADRA2B) is now associated with the STARD7 gene.

Early onset or syndromic epilepsy v2.53 ADRA2B Rebecca Foulger Added comment: Comment on list classification: Downgraded rating from Amber to Red following PMID:31664034 (2019) publication that finds an alternative cause for epilepsy in the earlier reported patients, suggesting the the ADRA2B allele is not causative. MIM:607876 is now associated with a repeat expansion in STARD7, and not ADRA2B.
Early onset or syndromic epilepsy v2.51 ADRA2B Rebecca Foulger commented on gene: ADRA2B: PMID:31664034. Corbett et al., 2019. In 158 affected individuals from 22 unrelated families with MIM:607876, Corbett et al. (2019) identified a heterozygous 5-bp repeat expansion, (ATTTC)n, in the STARD7 gene. The cohort included 2 families who had previously been identified as having an ins/del mutation in the ADRA2B gene (Guerrini et al., 2001 PMID:11701600, and De Fusco et al., 2014, PMID:24114805), suggesting the the ADRA2B allele is not causative.
Early onset or syndromic epilepsy v2.51 ADRA2B Rebecca Foulger Added comment: Comment on phenotypes: OMIM disorder 'Epilepsy, familial adult myoclonic, 2, 607876' is now associated with the STARD7 gene. Therefore removed MIM:607876 from the phenotype field of ADRA2B.
