Added comment: ESHG 2026

10 unrelated individuals with 10 different heterozygous missense variants throughout UBE2I gene (9 confirmed de novo) presenting with developmental delay (10), intellectual disability (4), ASD (5), microcephaly (3), hearing loss (3), and dysmorphism.

UBE2I encodes the only human E2 enzyme UBC9. SUMOylation is a critical post-translational modification regulating protein function, localization, and stability through E1, E2, and E3 enzymes. SUMOylation pathway is key regulator of neurodevelopment processes. Structural modeling for all variants suggested possible protein destabilization, disruption of the catalytic core, and altered SUMO binding. LCLs from patient with 2 variants (p.W53L and p.N124I) showed normal UBE2I mRNA levels, whereas protein levels were markedly reduced, and accompanied by decreased global SUMOylation. Yeast-based assays showed reduced protein stability for the p.W53L variant.
