Intellectual disability syndromic and non-syndromic v1.213 BLOC1S1 Rylee Peters changed review comment from: De Pace et al. 2025 [preprint] doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2025.07.17.25331211
11 individuals from seven unrelated families (includes 4 individuals from 3 families described in Bertoli-Avella PMID: 33875846), with severe neurodevelopmental disorder and harbour biallelic variants of BLOC1S1.

The disorder presents with early infantile onset and is characterised by deficient myelination, global developmental delay, intellectual disability, hypotonia, epilepsy (in some cases), and visual impairment (bilateral optic atrophy in most). The severity ranged from early death to a milder form with preserved ambulation and single-word communication. All individuals harbouring BLOC1S1 variants with available neuroimaging exhibit hypomyelinating leukodystrophy.

Functional analyses show that BLOC1S1 KO impairs the anterograde transport of lysosomes and autophagy in both non-neuronal cells and iPSC-derived neurons. Missense variants displayed various combinations of defective expression, assembly, lysosome dispersal and/or autophagy. The frameshift variant showed the most severe deficiencies in tested assays.; to: De Pace et al. 2025 [preprint] doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2025.07.17.25331211
