Intellectual disability syndromic and non-syndromic v1.59 | HECTD1 |
Chirag Patel gene: HECTD1 was added gene: HECTD1 was added to Intellectual disability syndromic and non-syndromic. Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: HECTD1 was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted Publications for gene: HECTD1 were set to PMID: 39879987 Phenotypes for gene: HECTD1 were set to Neurodevelopmental disorder MONDO:0700092 Review for gene: HECTD1 was set to GREEN Added comment: 14 unrelated individuals (identified through GeneMatcher) with 15 variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in HECTD1 (10 missense, 3 frameshift, 1 nonsense, and 1 splicing variant). Of the 15 different variants in HECTD1, 10 occurred de novo, 3 had unknown inheritance, and 2 were compound heterozygous. All variants were absent in gnomAD, and HECTD1 is highly intolerant to loss-of-function variation (loss-of-function-intolerant score of 1). Clinical presentation was variable developmental delay, intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, and epilepsy. The one individual with compound heterozygous variants had growth impairment along with NDD. The variants were inherited from apparently healthy parents, suggesting that genetic or environmental modifiers may be required to develop the phenotype. Significant enrichment of de novo variants in HECTD1 was also shown in an independent cohort of 53,305 published trios with NDDs or congenital heart disease. HECT-domain-containing protein 1 (HECTD1) mediates developmental pathways, including cell signalling, gene expression, and embryogenesis. Conditional knockout of Hectd1 in the neural lineage in mice resulted in microcephaly, severe hippocampal malformations, and complete agenesis of the corpus callosum, supporting a role for Hectd1 in embryonic brain development. Functional studies of 2 missense variants and 1 nonsense variant in C. elegans revealed dominant effects, including either change-of-function or loss-of-function/haploinsufficient mechanisms.

WES/WGS identified 25 LOF and 6 missense variants in MARK2 gene (Microtubule affinity-regulating kinase 2) which contributes to establishing neuronal polarity and developing dendritic spines. LOF variants were de novo (16/25), inherited (4/25), or unk (5/25). All 6 missense variants were de novo and clustered in the kinase or KA1 domains. The mRNA and protein expression of MARK2 in PBMCs were significantly lower in affected individuals with LOF variants than in the control group. In vitro expression assay of missense variants supported the effect of MARK2 loss. Proband-derived and CRISPR-engineered isogenic induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) showed MARK2 loss leads to early neuronal developmental and functional deficits, including anomalous polarity and disorganization in neural rosettes, as well as imbalanced proliferation and differentiation in neural progenitor cells (NPCs). Mark2+/- mice showed abnormal cortical formation and partition and ASD-like behaviour. Through the use of RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and lithium treatment, they linked MARK2 loss to downregulation of the WNT/β-catenin signaling pathway and identified lithium as a potential drug for treating MARK2-associated ASD.

They showed that PNPLA8-related neurological diseases manifest as a continuum ranging from variable developmental and/or degenerative epileptic-dyskinetic encephalopathy to childhood-onset neurodegeneration. Complete loss of PNPLA8 was associated with the more profound end of the spectrum. 13/19 individuals (info available) had developmental delay and/or severe intellectual disability. Using cerebral organoids generated from human induced pluripotent stem cells, they found that loss of PNPLA8 led to developmental defects by reducing the number of basal radial glial cells and upper-layer neurons. Neural progenitor cells lacking PNPLA8 showed a reduced amount of lysophosphatidic acid, lysophosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidic acid. They show that PNPLA8 is crucial to meet phospholipid synthetic needs and to produce abundant basal radial glial cells in human brain development. Sources: Literature |

Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: CLCN3 was set to BOTH monoallelic and biallelic (but BIALLELIC mutations cause a more SEVERE disease form), autosomal or pseudoautosomal Publications for gene: CLCN3 were set to 34186028 Phenotypes for gene: CLCN3 were set to Neurodevelopmental disorder Mode of pathogenicity for gene: CLCN3 was set to Other Review for gene: CLCN3 was set to GREEN Added comment: 11 individuals reported, 9 that carried 8 different rare heterozygous missense variants in CLCN3, and 2 siblings that were homozygous for an NMD-predicted frameshift variant likely abolishing ClC-3 function. All missense variants were confirmed to be de novo in eight individuals for whom parental data was available. The 11 individuals in the cohort share clinical features of variable severity. All 11 have GDD or ID and dysmorphic features, and a majority has mood or behavioural disorders and structural brain abnormalities: - Structural brain abnormalities on MRI (9/11) included partial or full agenesis of the corpus callosum (6/9), disorganized cerebellar folia (4/9), delayed myelination (3/9), decreased white matter volume (3/9), pons hypoplasia (3/9), and dysmorphic dentate nuclei (3/9). Six of those with brain abnormalities also presented with seizures. - Nine have abnormal vision, including strabismus in four and inability to fix or follow in the two with homozygous loss-of-function variants. - Hypotonia ranging from mild to severe was reported in 7 of the 11 individuals. - Six have mood or behavioural disorders, particularly anxiety (3/6). - Consistent dysmorphic facial features included microcephaly, prominent forehead, hypertelorism, down-slanting palpebral fissures, full cheeks, and micrognathia. The severity of disease in the two siblings with homozygous disruption of ClC-3 is consistent with the drastic phenotype seen in Clcn3 KO mice. The disease was more severe in two siblings carrying homozygous loss-of-function variants with the presence of GDD, absent speech, seizures, and salt and pepper fundal pigmentation in both individuals, with one deceased at 14 months of age. The siblings also had significant neuroanatomical findings including diffusely decreased white matter volume, thin corpora callosa, small hippocampi, and disorganized cerebellar folia. Supporting biallelic inheritance for LoF variants, disruption of mouse Clcn3 results in drastic neurodegeneration with loss of the hippocampus a few months after birth and early retinal degeneration. Clcn3−/− mice display severe neurodegeneration, whereas heterozygous Clcn3+/− mice appear normal. Patch-clamp studies were used to investigate four of the missense variants. These suggested a gain of function in two variants with increased current in HEK cells, however they also showed reduced rectification of voltage and a loss of transient current, plus decreased current amplitude, glycosylation and surface expression when expressed in oocytes, and were suspected to interfere with channel gating and a negative feedback mechanism. These effects were also shown to vary depending on pH levels. The current of the remaining two variants did not differ from WT. For heterozygous missense variants, the disruption induced may be at least partially conferred to mutant/WT homodimers and mutant/ClC-4 heterodimers. Both loss and gain of function in this gene resulted in the same phenotype. Sources: Literature |

Intellectual disability syndromic and non-syndromic v0.3786 | UFSP2 |
Konstantinos Varvagiannis changed review comment from: Ni et al (2021 - PMID: 33473208) describe the phenotype of 8 children (belonging to 4 families - 2 of which consanguineous) homozygous for a UFSP2 missense variant [NM_018359.5:c.344T>A; p.(Val115Glu)]. Members of a broader consanguineous pedigree from Pakistan with 3 affected children with epilepsy and DD and ID underwent exome sequencing. All affected individuals were homozygous for the specific SNV with their parents (2 parent pairs, in both cases first cousins) being heterozygous. An unaffected sib was homozygous for the wt allele. Through genematching platforms 3 additional families with similarly affected individuals and homozygosity for the same variant were recruited. These additional families were from Pakistan (1/3) and Afganistan (2/3). Based on ROH analysis from the broader first pedigree and an additional family the authors concluded on a single shared region of homozygosity on chr 4q. Lack of ES data did not allow verification of whether 2/4 families shared the same haplotype with the other 2. The authors calculated the probability of the genotype-phenotype cosegragation occurring by chance (0.009) and this was lower than the recommended criterion (0.06) for strong evidence of pathogenicity. Shared features included abnormal tone in most (hypotonia 6/8, limb hypertonia 1/8), seizures (8/8 - onset 2d - 7m), severe DD with speech delay/absent speech (8/8), ID (8/8), strabismus (6/8). UFSP2 encodes UFM1-specific protease 2 involved in UFmylation, a post-translational protein modification. As summarized by the authors the cysteine protease encoded by this gene (as is also the case for UFSP1) cleaves UFM1 in the initial step of UFMylation. Apart from producing mature UFM1, the 2 proteases have also the ability to release UFM1 from UFMylated proteins, in the process of de-UFMylation. [several refs. provided] UFMylation is important in brain development with mutations in genes encoding other components of the pathway reported in other NDD disorders (incl. UFM1, UBA5, UFC1). Additional studies were carried to provide evidence for pathogenicity of this variant. Skin biopsies from 3 individuals were carried out to establish fibroblast cultures. Immunoblotting revealed reduced UFSP2 levels relative to controls. mRNA levels measured by qRT-PCR revealed no differences compared to controls altogether suggesting normal mRNA but reduced protein stability. The authors demonstrated increased levels of UFM1-conjugated proteins (incl. DDRGK1, or TRIP4). Ectopic expression of wt UFSP2 normalized the levels of UFMylated proteins in the fibroblasts which was not the case for the V115E variant. Further the variant was difficult to detect by immunoblotting consistent with an effect on protein destabilization. Although disruption of UFMylation induces ER stress, this was not shown to occur in patient fibroblast lines, when assessed for ER stress markers. Evaluation of data from the GTEx project, concerning UFSP2 as well as well as DDRGK1 or TRIP4 - an UFMylation target - revealed relevant expression in multiple regions of the human brain. Overall the authors provide evidence for defective de-UFMylation in patient fibroblasts (presence of increased UFMylation marks). The authors stress out that the effect of the variant in UFMylation in brain is unknown, as UFSP1 or other enzymes might compensate in the presence of hypomorphic UFSP2 mutants. Biallelic UFSP2 variants have previously been reported in 2 skeletal dysplasias [# 142669. BEUKES HIP DYSPLASIA; BHD and # 617974. SPONDYLOEPIMETAPHYSEAL DYSPLASIA, DI ROCCO TYPE; SEMDDR].

Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: VPS41 was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal Publications for gene: VPS41 were set to 32808683 Phenotypes for gene: VPS41 were set to Dystonia; intellectual disability Review for gene: VPS41 was set to RED Added comment: Single individual reported with homozygous canonical splice site variant resulting in exon 7 skipping, and global developmental delay and generalized dystonia. He attained a few words and voluntary limb movements but never sat unsupported. He had pale optic discs and an axonal neuropathy. From 6 years of age, his condition began to deteriorate, with reduced motor abilities and alertness. An MRI of the brain showed atrophy of the superior cerebellar vermis and slimming of the posterior limb of the corpus callosum. VPS41 is component of the HOPS complex and other genes in the complex have been implicated in movement disorders. Sources: Literature |

Brief review of the literature suggests 3 relevant publications to date (04-07-2020). 2 individuals with DD and ID have been reported (Patil et al, 2018 - PMID: 29681087 and Pohl et al, 2013 - PMID: 23851939). Other subjects reported were only evaluated as newborns(mostly)/infants [Paganini et al, 2017 - PMID: 28657137, Patil et al, 2018 - PMID: 29681087]. While the first report by Pohl et al identified a homozygous missense variant supported by functional studies [NM_006192.5:c.497G>T - p.(Gly166Val)] subsequent ones identified homozygosity for pLoF mutations [Patil et al: NM_006192.4:c.1173_1174insGCCCG / Paganini et al: NM_006192:c.1104C>A - p.(Cys368*)]. As discussed by Pohl et al: PAX1 encodes a transcription factor with critical role in pattern formation during embryogenesis. Study of the mouse Gly157Val (equivalent to human Gly166Val) Pax1 variant suggested reduced binding affinity (reduced transactivation of a regulatory sequence of the Nkx3-2 promoter) and hypofunctional nature of this variant. Mouse models seem to recapitulate features of the disorder (skeletal, immunodeficiency) while the role of Pax1 in hearing process was thought to be supported by early expression (P6) in mouse cochlea. Overall this gene can be considered for inclusion in the ID panel with amber/green rating. Sources: Literature, Radboud University Medical Center, Nijmegen |

Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: EXOC2 was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal Publications for gene: EXOC2 were set to 32639540 Phenotypes for gene: EXOC2 were set to Global developmental delay; Intellectual disability; Abnormality of the face; Abnormality of brain morphology Penetrance for gene: EXOC2 were set to Complete Review for gene: EXOC2 was set to AMBER Added comment: Van Bergen et al (2020 - PMID: 32639540) report on 3 individuals from 2 families, harboring biallelic EXOC2 mutations. Clinical presentation included DD, ID (severe in 2 subjects from fam1, borderline intellectual functioning in fam2), dysmorphic features and brain abnormalities. Cerebellar anomalies were common to all with a molar tooth sign observed in one (1/3). Other findings limited to subjects from one family included acquired microcephaly, congenital contractures, spastic quadriplegia (each observed 2/3). Previous investigations were in all cases non-diagnostic. WES identified biallelic EXOC2 mutations in all affected individuals. EXOC2 encodes an exocyst subunit. The latter is an octameric complex, component of the membrane transport machinery, required for tethering and fusion of vesicles at the plasma membrane. As discussed ,vesicle transport is important for the development of brain and the function of neurons and glia. Exocyst function is also important for delivery of Arl13b to the primary cilium (biallelic ARL13B mutations cause Joubert syndrome 8) and ciliogenesis. Affected subjects from a broader consanguineous family (fam1) were homozygous for a truncating variant. Fibroblast studies revealed mRNA levels compatible with NMD (further restored in presence of CHX) as well as reduced protein levels. The female belonging to the second non-consanguineous family was found to harbor 2 missense variants in trans configuration. An exocytosis defect was demonstrated in fibroblasts from individuals belonging to both families. Ciliogenesis appeared to be normal, however Arl13b localization/recruitment to the cilia was reduced compared with control cells with the defect rescued upon exogenous expression of wt EXOC2. Mutations in other genes encoding components of the exocyst complex have been previously reported in individuals with relevant phenotypes (e.g. EXOC8 in a boy with features of Joubert s. or EXOC4 in nephrotic syndrome). The authors discuss on the essential role of EXOC2 based on model organism studies (e.g. impaired neuronal membrane traffic, failure of neuronal polarization and neuromuscular junction expansion seen in Drosophila Sec5 (EXOC2) null mutants).

Intellectual disability syndromic and non-syndromic v0.2724 | MCM3AP | Zornitza Stark edited their review of gene: MCM3AP: Added comment: PMID: 32202298 - Woldegebriel et al 2020 - report a further two families, one in the Netherlands and one in Estonia, with probands with compound heterozygous variants in MCM3AP and a peripheral neuropathy with or without impaired intellectual development (MIM 618124) phenotype. The child from the Netherlands presented with severe hypotonia and intellectual disability. The two siblings from the Estonian family had severe generalized epilepsy and mild spastic diplegia. Functional studies using skin fibroblasts from these and other affected patients showed that disease variants result in depletion of GANP (encoded by MCM3AP) except when they alter critical residues in the Sac3 mRNA binding domain. GANP depletion was associated with more severe phenotypes compared with the Sac3 variants.; Changed publications: 32202298 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Intellectual disability syndromic and non-syndromic v0.2627 | UGDH |
Konstantinos Varvagiannis gene: UGDH was added gene: UGDH was added to Intellectual disability syndromic and non-syndromic. Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: UGDH was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal Publications for gene: UGDH were set to 32001716 Phenotypes for gene: UGDH were set to Epileptic encephalopathy, early infantile, 84 - MIM #618792 Penetrance for gene: UGDH were set to Complete Review for gene: UGDH was set to GREEN Added comment: Hengel et al (2020 - PMID: 32001716) report on 36 individuals with biallelic UGDH pathogenic variants. The phenotype corresponded overall to a developmental epileptic encephalopathy with hypotonia, feeding difficulties, severe global DD, moderate or commonly severe ID in all. Hypotonia and motor disorder (incl. spasticity, dystonia, ataxia, chorea, etc) often occurred prior to the onset of seizures. A single individual did not present seizures and 2 sibs had only seizures in the setting of fever. Affected subjects were tested by exome sequencing and UGDH variants were the only/best candidates for the phenotype following also segregation studies. Many were compound heterozygous or homozygous (~6 families were consanguineous) for missense variants and few were compound heterozygous for missense and pLoF variants. There were no individuals with biallelic pLoF variants identified. Parental/sib studies were all compatible with AR inheritance mode. UGDH encodes the enzyme UDP-glucose dehydrogenase which converts UDP-glucose to UDP-glucuronate, the latter being a critical component of the glycosaminoglycans, hyaluronan, chondroitin sulfate, and heparan sulfate [OMIM]. Patient fibroblast and biochemical assays suggested a LoF effect of variants leading to impairment of UGDH stability, oligomerization or enzymatic activity (decreased UGDH-catalyzed reduction of NAD+ to NADH / hyaluronic acid production which requires UDP-glucuronate). Attempts to model the disorder using an already developped zebrafish model (for a hypomorphic LoF allele) were unsuccessful as fish did not exhibit seizures spontaneously or upon induction with PTZ. Modelling of the disorder in vitro using patient-derived cerebral organoids demonstrated smaller organoids due to reduced number of proliferating neural progenitors. Sources: Literature |

Konstantinos Varvagiannis gene: YIF1B was added gene: YIF1B was added to Intellectual disability syndromic and non-syndromic. Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: YIF1B was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal Publications for gene: YIF1B were set to 32006098 Phenotypes for gene: YIF1B were set to Central hypotonia; Failure to thrive; Microcephaly; Global developmental delay; Intellectual disability; Seizures; Spasticity; Abnormality of movement Penetrance for gene: YIF1B were set to Complete Review for gene: YIF1B was set to GREEN Added comment: AlMuhaizea et al (2020 - PMID: 32006098) report on the phenotype of 6 individuals (from 5 families) with biallelic YIF1B truncating variants. Affected subjects presented hypotonia, failure to thrive, microcephaly (5/6), severe global DD and ID (as evident from best motor/language milestones achieved - Table S1) as well as features suggestive of a motor disorder (dystonia/spasticity/dyskinesia). Seizures were reported in 2 unrelated individuals (2/6). MRI abnormalities were observed in some with thin CC being a feature in 3. Variable initial investigations were performed including SNP CMA, MECP2, microcephaly / neurotransmitter disorders gene panel testing did not reveal P/LP variants. YIF1B variants were identified in 3 families within ROH. Following exome sequencing, 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 encodes an intracellular transmembrane protein. It has been previously demonstrated that - similarly to other proteins of the Yip family being implicated in intracellular traffic between the Golgi - Yif1B is involved in the anterograde traffic pathway. Yif1B KO mice demonstrate a disorganized Golgi architecture in pyramidal hippocampal neurons (Alterio et al 2015 - PMID: 26077767). The rat ortholog interacts with serotonin receptor 1 (5-HT1AR) with colocalization of Yif1BB and 5-HT1AR in intermediate compartment vesicles and involvement of the former in intracellular trafficing/modulation of 5-HT1AR transport to dendrites (PMID cited: 18685031). Available mRNA and protein expression data (Protein Atlas) suggest that the gene is widely expressed in all tissues incl. neuronal cells. Immunochemistry data from the Human Brain Atlas also suggest that YIF1B is found in vesicles and localized to the Golgi apparatus. Immunohistochemistry in normal human brain tissue (cerebral cortex) demonstrated labeling of neuronal cells (Human Protein Atlas). Functional/network analysis of genes co-regulated with YIF1B based on available RNAseq data, suggest enrichement in in genes important for nervous system development and function. Please consider inclusion in other panels that may be relevant (e.g. microcephaly, etc). Sources: Literature |

Konstantinos Varvagiannis gene: CDC42BPB was added gene: CDC42BPB was added to Intellectual disability syndromic and non-syndromic. Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: CDC42BPB was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, imprinted status unknown Publications for gene: CDC42BPB were set to 32031333 Phenotypes for gene: CDC42BPB were set to Central hypotonia; Global developmental delay; Intellectual disability; Seizures; Autistic behavior; Behavioral abnormality Penetrance for gene: CDC42BPB were set to unknown Review for gene: CDC42BPB was set to GREEN Added comment: Chilton et al (2020 - PMID: 32031333) report on 14 individuals with missense and loss-of-function CDC42BPB variants. Features included hypotonia (8/11), DD (12/13 - the 14th was a fetus), ID (7/13), ASD (8/12), clinical seizures (in 3 - a 4th had abnormal EEG without seizures), behavioral abnormalities. Variable non-specific dysmorphic features were reported in some (sparse hair being the most frequent - 4/8). Additional features were observed in few (=<4) incl. cryptorchidism, ophthalmological issues, constipation, kidney abnormalities, micropenis, etc. All individuals had non-diagnostic prior genetic testing (incl. CMA, FMR1, MECP2, Angelman/Prader-Willi methylation studies, autism gene panel - suggesting relevance to the current panel) or metabolic testing. Variants were identified following clinical exome sequencing with Sanger confirmation. Most occurred as de novo events (11/14) while inheritance was not available for few (3/14). Missense variants did not display (particular) clustering. Almost all variants were absent from gnomAD and were predicted to be deleterious in silico (among others almost all had CADD scores >25). As the authors comment, CDC42BPB encodes myotonic dystrophy-related Cdc42-binding kinase β (MRCKβ) a serine/threonine protein kinase playing a role in regulation of cytoskeletal reorganization and cell migration in nonmuscle cells (through phosporylation of MLC2). Previous studies have demonstrated that it is ubiquitously expressed with prenatal brain expression. The gene appears to be intolerant to pLoF (pLI of 1) as well as to missense variants (Z-score of 3.66). CDC42BPB is a downstream effector of CDC42. Mutations of the latter cause Takenouchi-Kosaki syndrome with DD/ID and some further overlapping features (with CDC42BPB-associated phenotypes). Homozygous Cdc42bpb KO in mouse appears to be nonviable (MGI:2136459). Loss of gek in the eyes of Drosophila results in disrupted growth cone targeting to the lamina (gek is the fly CDC42BPB ortholog). Please consider inclusion with amber / green rating in the ID panel (>=4 relevant individuals / variants) and other panels (e.g. for epilepsy, ASD). Sources: Literature |
