Childhood onset dystonia, chorea or related movement disorder v3.65 ASL Eleanor Williams changed review comment from: Argininosuccinic aciduria (ASA) is caused by homozygous mutation in the gene encoding argininosuccinate lyase (ASL). Onset is typically in the neonatal period or in late infancy.

The association of biallelic variants in ASL and the phenotype of Argininosuccinic aciduria is well established. e.g.

PMID: 12384776 - Linnebank et al 2002 - homozygous/compound het variants in ASL in 27 unrelated individuals of different ancestries. No phenotype information is given. They also found a complete homologue of this gene on chr 22 which is predicted to encode an immunoglobulin-lambda-like mRNA.

PMID: 17326097 - Trevisson et al 2007 - report homozygous/compound het variants in ASL in 12 Italian patients with ASA. Ataxia is not mentioned as a phenotypic feature.

PMID: 29326055 - AlTassan et al 2018 - a retrospective review of 54 Saudi Arabian patients with ASA from January 2000 to December 2015. 35 patients (63%) had genetic data available all with variants in the ASL gene; c.1060C > T; p.(Gln354*) in 26 patients (likely founder mutation); c.556C > T; p.(Arg186Trp) in 7 patients, c.602+1G > T in one patient and 1062+5G > C in one patient. 7/10 patients are reported to show spasticity although it is not reporterd whether they all shared the same founder variant in ASL.

More recent retrospectives show that ataxia is reported in approx. 10% of individuals with Argininosuccinic aciduria. 2 cases with ataxia and ASL variant identified are reported.

PMID: 38044746 - Gurung et al 2023 - conducted a UK national multicentre retrospective study assessing the movement disorder phenotype in ASA patients from July 2015 to June 2022. 60 patients were studied with a median age of 12.7 years (range: 6 months to 53  years). 17 (28%) individuals had ASA with neurodegenerative-related symptoms, movement disorder, hypotonia/fatigue and abnormal behaviour. Of these 4 were reported to show tremor/dystonia, with this phenotype present at ages 9, 11, 24 and 25 years of age. Homozygous or compound het ASL variants were recorded in 25/60 patients including 3 out of the 4 patients with tremor/dystonia (patients 4,9 and 25 with c.719-2A>G; c.857A>G, c.1153C>T; c.1153C>T and c.437G>A; c.446+1G>A respectively). Genotype data was not available for other patients. Although patient 4 from this study and patient 9 from the Baruteau et al 2017 study share the same genotype and are both male, their phenotypic descriptions differ so assuming here that they are not the same patient.

PMID: 28251416 - Baruteau et al 2017 - conducted a retrospective and prospective analysis of patients in the UK with ASA from March 2013 - December 2015. Tremors or dystonia were reported in 4 individuals (1,4,9 and 25). All were diagnosed before the age of 3 although it is not stated at what age the tremors/dystonia were first noted. The first 3 of these patients had homozygous or compound het variants in ASL identified (c.35G>A;c.35G>A, c.377G>A;c.377G>A and c.719-2A>G, c.857A>G respectively).

Added comment: PMID:28334855 - Six patients from a large multigenerational Bedouin kindred had onset of different combinations of intellectual disability, muscle weakness, oculomotor apraxia, and nephropathy in early childhood and they were identified with a homozygous variant in SLC30A9 gene (c.1047_1049delGCA; p.A350del). The age of onset of movement disorder was around 1-2 years of age.

PMID:34716203 - A girl of African-American descent was identified with compound heterozygous variants in SLC30A9 gene (c.40delA & c.86_87dupCC) and was reported with a cerebrorenal syndrome. She presented around one year of age with microcephaly and global developmental delay. She also had bilateral sensorineural hearing loss and later developed dystonic movements affecting the whole body (onset was around 5-10 years of age).

PMID:37041080 - Eight individuals from four unrelated families were reported with SLC30A9-related disease and they presented with intellectual disability and progressive hyperkinetic movement disorder, associated with oculomotor apraxia and ptosis despite phenotypic variability. The two families of British Pakistani descent harboured homozygous c.1253G>T (p.Gly418Val) variant, Egyptian Palestinian family harboured homozygous c.1049delCAG (pAla350del) variant, while family of European Australian descent had compound heterozygous variants (c.1083dup/ p.Val362Cysfs*5, and c.1413A>G/ p.Ser471=). The age of onset of movement disorder in these patients ranged from around 1-2 years to 16 years of age.

Childhood onset dystonia, chorea or related movement disorder v3.18 TMEM151A Achchuthan Shanmugasundram changed review comment from: PMID:34518509 - Nine individuals from three unrelated Chines families with paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PKD) were identified with autosomal dominant variants in TMEM151A gene. In addition, 8 unrelated patients (isolated cases) with sporadic occurrence of PKD were also identified with heterozygous variants, of which three patients inherited variants from an unaffected parent, suggesting incomplete penetrance. The age of onset of symptoms ranged between 9 and 15 years. In addition, supporting mouse model and in vitro functional assays suggested loss of function as the mechanism of disease.

PMID:34820915 - 29 PRRT2-negative Chinese patients from 25 families with PKD identified with 24 heterozygous variants in TMEM151A gene. The mean age of onset of symptoms was 12.93 years, with 13 patients reported with spontaneous remission of the disease around 21 years of age.

PMID:35587630 - De novo missense variant in TMEM151A was identified in a French man with PKD and he presented with brief attacks of dystonia after 16 years of age.

PMID:35707035 - Screening of patients with PRRT2-negative PKD and other movement disorders identified two novel variants in TMEM151A gene in two patients with PKD.

PMID:35727387 - Heterozygous missense variant was identified in four affected members of a 3-generation Chinese family with PKD and the variant segregated with the disorder in the family.

Childhood onset dystonia, chorea or related movement disorder v1.263 ADAR Arina Puzriakova Added comment: Comment on mode of inheritance: Should be updated from biallelic only to both mono- and biallelic at the next GMS panel update.

Dystonia is an established feature of AGS6 (MIM# 615010) associated with AR variants in this gene. Overall the AD condition (dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria, MIM# 127400) often presents with changes in skin pigmentation as the only sign of disease. However, there have also been reports of neurologic deficits including ID, developmental regression, brain calcification, seizures and dystonia in some affected individuals, particularly with the Gly1007Arg variant (PMID: 16225627; 16817193; 19017046). Although the penetrance of extracutaneous features is reduced, there is value in testing heterozygous ADAR variants on these panels to ensure syndromic cases are not missed if not tested in the context of the skin phenotype.
Childhood onset dystonia, chorea or related movement disorder v1.261 AP1S2 Arina Puzriakova changed review comment from: Comment on mode of inheritance: Review of literature did not reveal any confirmed affected females. Female carriers of AP1S2 variants are phenotypically normal and have mostly shown random X-inactivation. Huo et al., 2019 (PMID: 30714330) state that they identified a female patient (I-1) but this individual was not available for genetic testing and so it is unclear whether they harboured a variant on a one or both alleles.

As no confirmed female cases have been reported and the allelic requirement remains elusive, the MOI should be set to the default XL (i.e. monoallelic in females may cause disease) as this will ensure that both mono and biallelic variants are picked up in females by the pipeline.; to: Comment on mode of inheritance: Review of literature did not reveal any confirmed affected females.

As it is not known definitively whether females require a variant on each allele of this gene in order to be affected, the MOI should be set to the default XL (i.e. monoallelic in females may cause disease).
Childhood onset dystonia, chorea or related movement disorder v1.240 HECW2 Arina Puzriakova Added comment: Comment on list classification: There is enough evidence to promote this gene to Green at the next GMS panel update. Motor dysfunction is a key feature in majority of cases and of all individuals aged 5 years or older, only 7/12 could walk, although often with limited capacity. Therefore, inclusion of HECW2 on this panel could present potential diagnostic benefit.

PMID: 34636445 reports a missense variant identified in a large single-family pedigree with dystonia and spastic paraplegia. The variant was identified via exome sequencing of the proband and a distant cousin, focussing on variants within the previously determined linkage region. The identical missense variant was also identified in a patient with childhood onset dystonic syndrome and was shown to be de novo. Functional studies of fibroblast cell lines from affected father (HSP) and proband of large family demonstrated decreased complex V function. A drosophila model containing the missense variant had reduced mobility and reduced complex V activity.

PMID: 34954817 reports de novo monoallelic missense variants in three individuals, however one of these individuals was reported in above paper. The other two patients were: (1) a-15-year-old girl with milestone delay, pyramidal signs, and generalized dystonia with prominent upper-body involvement, and (2) a 6-year-old boy with delayed psychomotor development, lower-extremity spasticity, and elevated blood lactate levels

Childhood onset dystonia, chorea or related movement disorder v1.198 CLPB Arina Puzriakova Added comment: Comment on mode of inheritance: MOI should be updated from 'Biallelic' to 'Both mono- and biallelic' at the next GMS update.

Association between biallelic variants and disease is well established, with at least 7 affected individuals reported with a movement disorder. Recently, Wortmann et al. 2021 (PMID: 34140661) published six unrelated individuals with one of four different de novo monoallelic missense variants in CLPB. The phenotype strongly overlapped with that observed in the recessive disease. Three individuals were nonambulatory and one was ambulatory but with a wide based gait and not able to run or jump. Some functional studies of heterozygous variants were performed.

Clinical presentation was prominent in all cases for dystonia with onset in infancy or childhood, with subsequent generalisation. Additional clinical details are limited for the family described in PMID:33866603. However, in the remaining families detailed in PMID:33236446, 3 unrelated individuals additionally developed mild ID, spasticity, and brain MRI alterations; while the other 2 families (6 individuals) only had isolated dystonia.; Changed publications to: 32197074, 33236446, 33866603

Clinical features include severe DD and profound ID (6/6), hypotonia (5/6), microcephaly (6/6), dystonia (5/6), congenital cataracts (4/5), epilepsy (3/6), anaemia (3/6 - dyserythropoietic in 2), and structural brain abnormalities including cerebellar hypoplasia (5/6) or severe cerebral atrophy (1/6). Some functional data indicating a dominant-negative effect.

- PMID: 33186543 (2020) - Three unrelated individuals with congenital dyserythropoietic anaemia, severe neurodevelopmental delay, and dystonia. Two patients harboured different de novo variants (c.850A>T, c.608G>A) in the ATPase domain, while the third had a homozygous alteration (c.83C>T) occurring in the N-terminal microtubule interacting and trafficking domain of VPS4A. The first two individuals congenital microcephaly with brain MRI showing white matter and cerebral volume loss, thin corpus callosum, and ponto-cerebellar atrophy. One individual also displayed a seizure disorder and congenital cataracts. The case with the biallelic variant presented with a milder hematologic phenotype and had macrocephaly (rather than microcephaly) and delayed white matter myelination. Functional studies support pathogenicity.

- PMID: 33460484 (2021) - One child with a a severe neurodevelopmental disorder and congenital haemolytic anaemia but no overt sign of dyserythropoiesis, associated with a de novo variant (c.850A>T) in VPS4A. Other features include microcephaly (-2.5 SD), choreodystonic movements, and bilateral cataract. Brain MRI showed cerebral atrophy, thin dysplastic corpus callosum, basal ganglia atrophy, brainstem hypoplasia, cerebellar hypoplasia and dysplasia

Review for gene: YIF1B was set to GREEN
Added comment: - PMID: 32006098 - 6 individuals (from 5 families) with biallelic YIF1B truncating variants. Presenting features: hypotonia, failure to thrive, microcephaly (5/6), severe global DD and ID as well as features suggestive of a motor disorder including dystonia (5/6), spasticity (6/6), dyskinesia (5/5). Seizures were reported in 2 unrelated individuals (2/6). MRI abnormalities were observed in some with thin CC being a feature in 3.

Affected individuals were found to be homozygous for truncating variants (4/5 families being consanguineous). The following 3 variants were identified (NM_001039672.2) : c.186dupT or p.Ala64fs / c.360_361insACAT or p.Gly121fs / c.598G>T or p.Glu200*.

Yif1B KO mice demonstrate a disorganized Golgi architecture in pyramidal hippocampal neurons (Alterio et al 2015 - PMID: 26077767). Functional/network analysis of genes co-regulated with YIF1B based on available RNAseq data, suggest enrichment in genes important for nervous system development and function.

Added comment: Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome (AHDS) is an X-linked condition characterized by severely impaired intellectual development, dysarthria, athetoid movements, muscle hypoplasia, and spastic paraplegia. There is large phenotypic interfamilial and intrafamilial variability. In a recent review of 24 affected individuals (PMID 31410843), 16 presented with profound developmental delay, three had severe intellectual disability with poor language and walking with an aid, four had moderate intellectual disability with language and walking abilities, and one had mild intellectual disability with hypotonia. Overall, eight had learned to walk, all had hypotonia, 17 had spasticity, 18 had dystonia, 12 had choreoathetosis, 19 had hypomyelination, and 10 had brain atrophy. Kyphoscoliosis (n=12), seizures (n=7), and pneumopathies (n=5) were the most severe complications.

Two studies report de novo variants in 8 unrelated cases with a syndromic intellectual disability disorder. Clinical features included moderate-severe GDD/ID (7/7), abnormalities on brain MRI (8/8), ophthalmological abnormalities (7/8), short stature (6/8), and microcephaly (6/8). Movement manifestations were also observed - 3 individuals were non-ambulatory, while another 3 presented dystonia, one of whom also had ataxia, tremor, and wide‐based gait.

Added comment: Multiple reports of dystonia in this disorder. In a recent series of 18 individuals with de novo mutations, the most observed substitution affected the p.Ile80 residue in exon 6, with 28% of individuals carrying a variant at this residue. Dystonia and growth delay were observed more frequently in individuals carrying variants in this residue, suggesting a potential genotype-phenotype correlation.

PMID: 32197074 (2020) - Distinct de novo missense variants were identified in eight unrelated individuals who all share a notable phenotypic overlap of developmental delay, cognitive impairment, white matter alterations, dysarthria or lack of speech, and neurologic regression with febrile illness. Other variable features included hypotonia (7/8), hypertonia (7/8), ataxia (6/8), dystonia (5/8), tremor (3/8) and seizures (4/8). Functional data confirm reduced kinase activity compared to the wildtype protein product, and authors predict a dominant-negative effect.
