Added comment: PMID: 40975062 1 patient compound heterozygous for n.36T>G and n.28C>T. Has short stature, microcephaly, hypotonia, neurodevelopmental delay, ID, seizures, ataxia, ventriculomegaly, syndactyly, nystagmus and oculomotor apraxia. Identified in a cohort of individuals with an excess of significant intron retention outliers in minor intron containing genes which are usually removed by the minor spliceosome of which RNU6ATAC is a part (as is RNU4ATAC). Proband had no candidate variants in RNU4ATAC or RNU12. Both RNU6ATAC variants are in a highly conserved 39bp region, and affect nucleotides predicted to be important for binding to U4ATAC.

Added comment: PMID: 39315527
30 individuals (aged 6 months to 40 years) from 17 unrelated families with biallelic LOF variants in INPP4A gene (11 nonsense or frameshift and 3 missense, mostly exon 4).

Cardinal clinical features include: severe global developmental delay, profound speech impairment, severe-profound intellectual disability, and severe lower limb weakness/paralysis. More variable clinical features include: microcephaly, short stature, cerebellar signs, involuntary movements, axial hypotonia, spasticity, quadriparesis, joint contractures, seizures, visual impairment. Neuroimaging findings vary from normal to features of (ponto)cerebellar hypoplasia, ventriculomegaly, reduced cerebral volume and hypomyelination. A more severe presentation is seen with variants downstream of exon 4.

Preliminary fibroblast cell studies identify disruption of endocytic pathways as the likely mechanism of disease, consistent with previous findings of a role of INPP4A in endocytosis. All mouse models display a phenotype mirroring human INPP4A-related neurodevelopmental disorder entailing a severe movement disorder with inability to walk, a small brain, and poor growth/weight gain.

Added comment: - PMID: 27325888 (2016) - Three sibs from a consanguineous Turkish family with a homozygous variant (c.652C>T, p.Q218X) in USP18. Antenatal presentation in one sib led to termination of pregnancy at 22 wk of gestation, and in the remaining two children presentation was neonatal and resulted in death within 2 weeks of life. In the latter two individuals manifestations included severe intracerebral haemorrhages, liver dysfunction, ascites, and lactic acidosis. One sib additionally had severe thrombocytopenia with petechiae, while the other developed seizures.

Two German sibs, previously reported in PMID: 12833411 (2013), were found to be compound het for the same p.Q218X variant and a cryptic 3-prime deletion of the USP18 gene. They presented thrombocytopenia, petechiae, ascites, hepatomegaly, and systemic calcifications. Within the first days of life, they developed seizures and died from severe cerebral haemorrhage.

Haplotype analysis of the region containing the Q218X mutation suggested a common ancestor between the 2 families and a founder effect.

- PMID: 31940699 (2020) - One Saudi Arabian boy with a homozygous splice-site variant (c.1073+1G>A) in USP18, presented hydrocephalus with seizures, intraventricular haemorrhage, brain calcifications, necrotizing cellulitis, systemic inflammation, multiple organ failure, and respiratory failure. This was the only patient to survive beyond the perinatal period owing to supportive care and prompt treatment with ruxolitinib. At the time of publication, the child was 3-years-old and was in full remission of clinical manifestations while continuing to receive oral ruxolitinib. He continues to grow normally, however authors note delay in developmental milestones.

Cohort of 5 patients with an MRI based diagnosis of megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts (MLC). Missense variant in AQP4 seen homozygous in 2 siblings and het in the parents. Patients had macrocephaly, developmental delay, hypotonia, epilepsy, and cognitive deficit.

Western blots on generated MDCK cell lines showed no detectable expression of AQP4 protein from the cells with the patients variant. Immunofluorescence also showed no membrane expression. Overexpression studies in HEK293T cells showed WT was seen as mainly monomers or dimers where as variant protein formed large aggregates- likely due to the saturation of protein degradation pathways because of the overexpression.

Added comment: PMID: 37143309
Cohort of 5 patients with an MRI based diagnosis of megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts (MLC). 3 unrelated patients had variants in GPRC5B, 2 have the same inframe dup Ile175dup and the third has an in frame dup of Ala177. All 3 were de novo and unaffected siblings did not have the variants. All patients have macrocephaly, delayed motor development, seizures, all had varying degrees of cognitive deficits. 2 also had spasticity, ataxia and dystonia. MRI showed MLC, abnormal and swollen cerebral white matter.

Patient cell lines showed reduced regulatory volume decrease, and western blot showed a strong increase in GRPC5B levels in patient lymphoblasts. Together, these findings indicate disturbed volume regulation in lymphoblasts from patients with GPRC5B variants, potentially due to increased GPRC5B levels. Transfected cells caused increased volume-regulated anion channel activity.

Added comment: Two reportedly unrelated, consanguine families with the same hom stop mutation in PI4K2A, p.(Arg309Ter). Probands with seizures, developmental delay, hypotonia/dystonia, myoclonus and developmental delay. MRI showed extensive brain abnormalities including dysgenesis of the corpus callosum, ventriculomegaly, and white matter volume loss.

Functional studies showed cellular mislocalisation of the Arg309Ter truncated protein construct compared to WT and an missense control.

An earlier paper from 2018 described two additional probands with a different stop mutation, p.(Ser22Ter), and overlapping phenotypic presentation.

in 2011, a Pi4k2a knock-out mouse model was described. "Knock-out animals initially appeared normal but later develop a progressive neurological dis-ease characterized by tremor, limb weakness, urinary incontinence and premature mortality. Histological analysis revealed massive axonal degeneration in the spinal cord in the descending corticospinal tracts."

Genetic Epilepsy v0.1079 AFF3 Zornitza Stark edited their review of gene: AFF3: Added comment: 16 affected individuals reported with de novo missense variants. All variants occurred within the degron motif of the ALF domain. The highly conserved 9-amino acid motif mediates the interaction with SIAH E3 ubiquitin ligases and regulates their degradation. Thirteen of the probands carried variants affecting the same codon in exon 6, ala258.

All probands presented with severe developmental epileptic encephalopathy along with mesomelic dysplasia (12/18) and failure to thrive (14/18). The skeletal features included short forearms, radial head dislocation/subluxation, triangular and/or short tibia, fibular hypoplasia, hip dislocation, and tarsal and/or metatarsal synostosis resembling Nievergelt/Savarirayan mesomelic skeletal dysplasia. Other features included microcephaly (9/18), global brain atrophy and/or ventriculomegaly (13/15), fibular hypoplasia (12/16), horseshoe or hypoplastic kidney (13/17), abnormalities of muscle tone (12/16), gastroesophageal reflux disease (6/16), and other gastrointestinal symptoms (14/17). The patients also shared common dysmorphic facial features such as a bulbous nasal tip (10/15), a wide mouth (10/16) often with a square upper lip, abnormalities of the teeth and gums (12/15), and hypertrichosis (12/15).

PMID: 33186545 - 6x probands with de novo missense variants in the AAA domain. 5 of the variants were at amino acid position 284 (changes to Trp and Gly). Demonstrated that the variants had a dominant-negative effect on VPS4A function. "The six probands with de novo substitutions affecting Glu206 or Arg284 had a consistent phenotype characterized by severe DD, profound ID, and dystonia. Children were very delayed in establishing head control and none achieved independent walking. Other common findings were cerebellar hypoplasia (five individuals out of six, the other showing uncharacterized severe cerebral atrophy) with a variable degree of corpus callosum hypoplasia. One individual also had bilateral polymicrogyria. Epilepsy was present in three and dystonia in five subjects. Eye involvement was also a common finding, including congenital cataract, retinal dystrophy, and in one case congenital Leber amaurosis. Four individuals were diagnosed with hepatosplenomegaly and/or steatosis. Three subjects had anemia, which was characterized as dyserythropoietic in two. Severe feeding difficulties were present in four individuals, requiring assisted feeding in three. Two had sensorineural deafness. Severe growth retardation, generally for all parameters, was present in most cases. Notably, severe microcephaly (typically with Z scores < −5) was universal. Overall, the disorder seems to have a poor prognosis as two affected individuals died in childhood or early adult life."

Mode of inheritance for gene: KDM4B was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted
Publications for gene: KDM4B were set to PMID: 33232677
Phenotypes for gene: KDM4B were set to Global developmental delay, intellectual disability and neuroanatomical defects
Review for gene: KDM4B was set to GREEN
Added comment: Nine individuals with mono-allelic de novo or inherited variants in KDM4B.

All individuals presented with dysmorphic features and global developmental delay (GDD) with language and motor skills most affected. Three individuals had a history of seizures, and four had anomalies on brain imaging ranging from agenesis of the corpus callosum with hydrocephalus to cystic formations, abnormal hippocampi, and polymicrogyria.

In a knockout mouse the total brain volume was significantly reduced with decreased
size of the hippocampal dentate gyrus, partial agenesis of the corpus callosum, and ventriculomegaly.

Added comment: Seven individuals from four families reported with bi-allelic LOF variants and global developmental delay, intellectual disability with language deficit, autistic features, behavioural abnormalities, epilepsy, chronic insomnia, white matter changes on brain MRI, dysmorphic features, decreased stature, and decreased high density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Rodent (mouse and rat) models of GALNT2-CDG recapitulated much of the human phenotype, including poor growth and neurodevelopmental abnormalities.
