Mendeliome v1.2949 DDX39A Krithika Murali gene: DDX39A was added
gene: DDX39A was added to Mendeliome. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: DDX39A was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Publications for gene: DDX39A were set to PMID: 40726340
Phenotypes for gene: DDX39A were set to Neurodevelopmental disorder, MONDO:0700092, DDX39A-related
Review for gene: DDX39A was set to RED
Added comment: PMID: 40726340 Ahmed et al 2025 (Clinical Genetics) report a 7 month old F with GDD, seizures, microcephaly, hypotonia, corpus callosum thinning and homozygous missense variant (p.Lys137Gln) in DDX39A on trio WES with both non-consanguineous parents confirmed to be heterozygous carriers. DDX39A is involved in mRNA splicing and export. Patient-derived fibroblast studies showed that mutant protein resulted in aberrant nuclear clumping and failure to interact with the TREX complex.

Of note, closely-related paralogue DDX39B is also a component of the TREX complex and has a definitive monoallelic association with neurodevelopmental disorder.

Mendeliome v1.2341 DDX39B Sangavi Sivagnanasundram gene: DDX39B was added
gene: DDX39B was added to Mendeliome. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: DDX39B was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted
Publications for gene: DDX39B were set to 39918047
Phenotypes for gene: DDX39B were set to neurodevelopmental disorder MONDO:0700092, DDX39B-related

Added comment: Established gene-disease association.

6 individuals from 5 families with variable neurological and developmental phenotypes including hypotonia, DD, ID and epilepsy.
4 de novo missense variants and 1 inherited splice variant were identified. All variants are absent from gnomAD v4.1.
In vivo functional assay using Drosophila transgenic flies was supportive of a loss of function phenotype.
