Mendeliome v1.3922 TERB1 Zornitza Stark Marked gene: TERB1 as ready
Mendeliome v1.3922 TERB1 Zornitza Stark Gene: terb1 has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Mendeliome v1.3922 TERB1 Zornitza Stark Classified gene: TERB1 as Green List (high evidence)
Mendeliome v1.3922 TERB1 Zornitza Stark Gene: terb1 has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Mendeliome v1.3921 TERB1 Zornitza Stark gene: TERB1 was added
gene: TERB1 was added to Mendeliome. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: TERB1 was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Publications for gene: TERB1 were set to 38277113; 35172124; 33211200; 32741963
Phenotypes for gene: TERB1 were set to Infertility disorder, MONDO:0005047, TERB1-related
Review for gene: TERB1 was set to GREEN
Added comment: PMIDs 32741963, 33211200, 35172124 and 38277113 report a total of 5 unrelated families with biallelic loss‑of‑function or missense TERB1 variants causing male infertility (non‑obstructive azoospermia with spermatogenic arrest) and  2 unrelated families with primary female infertility (diminished ovarian reserve). The variants include frameshift, stop‑gain and missense changes; mouse Terb1 knockout recapitulates the meiotic‑arrest phenotype.

Added comment: New papers (biallelic variant for HM/male infertility):
i) PMID: 39545410- Novel homozygous splice donor site variant c.349+1G>T in patient 1824 (Italian) with 2 HMs followed by secondary infertility and substantially reduced bilateral ovarian volumes. MAJIN codes for a junction protein that forms a complex with TERB1 and TERB2, which together bind to telomeres and anchor them to the inner nuclear membrane components KASH5 and SUN1. This attachment of chromosomes to the nuclear envelope is essential for homologous chromosome movement and synapsis. In mice, both male and female null mutants Majin are infertile (PMID: 26548954). In humans, biallelic mutations in MAJIN have been reported in infertile males.

ii) PMID: 33211200- A homozygous p.Arg53His in NOA-affected male (Individual 4- M1646) with high CADD scores and low gnomad freq. Mice disrupted for either Majin or Terb2 display impaired synapsis, zygotene arrest, a lack of postmeiotic cells and infertility (Shibuya et al. 2015; Zhang et al. 2017).
