Added comment: 11 individuals from 8 families with mild to moderate intellectual disability (11/11), epilepsy (8/11), hearing impairment (3/11), macrocephaly (2/11), facial dysmorphism (6/6).

WES/WGS identified biallelic variants (missense, nonsense, and large deletion) in KICS2 gene (aka C12ORF66). The KICS2 protein is part of the KICSTOR complex which recruits GATOR1 to lysosomes and inhibits mTORC1 activity. Overactivation of the mTORC1 pathway is a recognized cause of several neurodevelopmental disorders.

The variants in the individuals partly affected KICS2 stability, compromised KICSTOR complex formation, and demonstrated a deleterious impact on nutrient-dependent mTORC1 regulation of 4EBP1 and S6K. Phosphoproteome analyses extended these findings to show that KICS2 variants changed the mTORC1 proteome, affecting proteins that function in translation, splicing, and ciliogenesis. Depletion of Kics2 in zebrafish resulted in ciliary dysfunction consistent with a role of mTORC1 in cilia biology.

Genetic Epilepsy v0.1631 PIK3C2B Krithika Murali gene: PIK3C2B was added
gene: PIK3C2B was added to Genetic Epilepsy. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: PIK3C2B was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted
Publications for gene: PIK3C2B were set to PMID: 35786744
Phenotypes for gene: PIK3C2B were set to familial partial epilepsy - MONDO#0017704
Review for gene: PIK3C2B was set to AMBER
Added comment: No OMIM gene disease association.

Gozzelino et al.(2022) Brain - report enrichment of ultra-rare PIK3C2B variants in focal epilepsy cohorts, including one variant shown to be de novo (G1294Q). Segregation data not provided for all cases. The p.G1345S variant was inherited from an affected father. The p.K584* variant was inherited from an unaffected father suggesting incomplete penetrance. Functional studies supported a LoF mechanism and mouse model studies suggestive of mTORC1 pathway hyperactivation.
