Mendeliome v1.1510 RHOXF1 Chris Ciotta gene: RHOXF1 was added
gene: RHOXF1 was added to Mendeliome. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: RHOXF1 was set to X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, biallelic mutations in females
Publications for gene: RHOXF1 were set to PMID: 38258527
Phenotypes for gene: RHOXF1 were set to Spermatogenic failure, MONDO:0004983, RHOXF1-related
Review for gene: RHOXF1 was set to AMBER
Added comment: In a cohort of 1,201 men from China with oligozoospermia and azoospermia, hemizygous RHOXF1 variants were identified in 4 unrelated individuals.

Three of these variants were missense variants (V130M, A91V & A156V), all were absent from gnomAD (including version 4) and had deleterious in silicos.

The one other variant was a nonsense variant (R160X) which is predicted to escape NMD and truncate the protein. This is seen in gnomAD version 4 in 1 heterozygote female, and absent in other versions.

In vitro functional evidence for these variants was provided, the V130M, A156V and R160X mutants demonstrated impaired protein localisation with an increase in the protein in the cytoplasm and impaired nuclear entry, the A91V mutant protein did not share these localisation defects.

Further, The V130M mutant protein decreased DMRT1 promotor activity, DMRT1 is considered essential for testicular development and spermatogenesis. However, the R160X variant demonstrated increased activation, three times higher than WT. The two other missense variants had no effect.

Mendeliome v1.1156 APOO Zornitza Stark edited their review of gene: APOO: Added comment: PMID: 37649161
1 family, 2 individuals (male & female) with same NMD variant c.532G>T (p.E178*), maternally inherited (mother unaffected).

Both died before 18 months of age with partial agenesis of the corpus callosum, bilateral congenital cataract, hypothyroidism, and severe immune deficiencies.
Other phenotypes included partial syndactyly of the 2nd and 3rd toes, wrinkled palm, and sole skin.

Functional studies included site directed mutagenesis. This mutation resulted in a highly unstable and degradation
prone MIC26 protein, yet the remaining minute amounts of mutant MIC26 correctly localized to mitochondria and
interacted physically with other MICOS subunits. MIC26 KO cells expressing MIC26 harboring the respective APOO/MIC26 mutation showed mitochondria with perturbed cristae architecture and fragmented morphology resembling MIC26 KO cells.; Changed publications: 37649161; Changed phenotypes: Mitochondrial disease, MONDO:0044970, APOO-related, Developmental delay, Lactic acidosis, Muscle weakness, Hypotonia, Repetitive infections, Cognitive impairment, Autistic behaviour

Mode of inheritance for gene: DCAF13 was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Publications for gene: DCAF13 were set to 36797467
Phenotypes for gene: DCAF13 were set to Neuromuscular disease (MONDO#0019056), DCAF13-related
Review for gene: DCAF13 was set to RED
Added comment: One consanguineous family, 4x individuals homozygous NM_015420.7(DCAF13)c.907 G > A; p.(Asp303Asn) (3x via WES and 1x via Sanger) with a neuromuscular disorder characterized by a waddling gait, limb deformities, muscular weakness and facial palsy.

In silicos analysis of mutant DCAF13 suggests that the amino acid change is deleterious and affects a ß-hairpin turn, within a WD40 domain of the protein which may decrease protein stability. Functional studies were not performed.

Previously, a heterozygous variant in DCAF13 with or without a heterozygous missense variant in CCN3, was suggested to cause inherited cortical myoclonic tremor with epilepsy. In addition, a heterozygous DCAF13 variant has been associated with autism spectrum disorder.

Pro39Ser (absent in gnomAD) was de novo by parental sanger and showed reduced cell mobility on scratch assays.

2 other variants Gly140Glu and Ser142Thr were deemed non-causative due to poor in silicos and conservation

Finally, hom KO mouse models were done to prove neural tube defects

Mendeliome v0.9328 UNC13B Zornitza Stark gene: UNC13B was added
gene: UNC13B was added to Mendeliome. Sources: Expert Review
Mode of inheritance for gene: UNC13B was set to BOTH monoallelic and biallelic, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Publications for gene: UNC13B were set to 33876820
Phenotypes for gene: UNC13B were set to Epilepsy
Review for gene: UNC13B was set to RED
Added comment: No OMIM human disease association. Gene encodes a presynaptic protein Munc13-2 highly expressed in the brain (predominantly cerebral cortex).

Variant interpretation data in human epilepsy cohort somewhat conflicting and restricted to a single study. Conflicting data esp regarding MOI, and evidence for pathogenicity of several of the variants is limited.

Wang et al, Brain, 2021 - trio-based whole-exome sequencing identified UNC13B in 12 individuals affected by partial epilepsy and/or febrile seizures from 8 unrelated families. Identified:
x1 de novo nonsense variant, absent in gnomad, damaging in silicos
x1 de novo splice site, absent in gnomad, damaging in silicos
x1 splice site variant present in unaffected mother (low frequency in gnomad)
x2 compound het in one individual - more severe phenotype postulated (x1 variant present in contro cohortl, the other variant present in low frequency in gnomad)
x1 missense variant - in Han Chinese major depressive disorders study, not in gnomad
x1 missense variant - highly conserved residue, not in gnomad
x2 other missense variant - highly conserved residue, low frequency in gnomad
Latter 4 missense variants cosegregated with affected individuals in the families

In Drosophila, seizure rate and duration were increased by Unc13b knockdown compared to wild-type flies, but these effects were less pronounced than in sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 1 (Scn1a) knockdown Drosophila

De novo UNC13B variants previously reported in bipolar disorder and autism spectrum disorder

Mendeliome v0.7084 FBN2 Zornitza Stark edited their review of gene: FBN2: Added comment: The association between mono-allelic variants in FBN2 and CCA is well established. Recent report of bi-allelic variants, Kloth (2021): biallelic FBN2 variants (PTC/missense) in a teenager with severe CCA, including cardiac defects, mild scoliosis and muscular involvement. Carrier parents both "healthy/unaffected". Phenotype matches mouse K/O. Authors performed a lit review and identified an additional 2 homozygous patients (both missense variants) with - fetal akinesia, brain ischemia and neonatal death - severe muscle weakness with bilateral clubfeet, a pronounced gait disturbance, recurrent patellar dislocations, flexion contractures, camptodactyly, widespread striae and an unusual myofibrillar disorganization, variation in fiber size and atrophic fibers in muscle biopsy.

Evidence for association with Macular degeneration, early-onset MIM#616118 is limited. One family reported, plus some rare variants reported in cohort studies. The familial variant p.Glu1144Lys is present in 11 hets in gnomad and has benign in silicos. The second variant reported in the paper, p.Met1247Thr is present in >20 hets.; Changed rating: GREEN; Changed publications: 33571691; Changed phenotypes: Contractural arachnodactyly, congenital MIM#121050, Macular degeneration, early-onset MIM#616118; Changed mode of inheritance: BOTH monoallelic and biallelic, autosomal or pseudoautosomal

Publications for gene: APOO were set to 32439808
Phenotypes for gene: APOO were set to Developmental delay; Lactic acidosis; Muscle weakness; Hypotonia; Repetitive infections; Cognitive impairment; Autistic behaviour
Review for gene: APOO was set to RED
Added comment: - PMID: 32439808 (2021) - Three generation family with c.350T>C variant in APOO, encoding a component of the MICOS complex which plays a role in maintaining inner mitochondrial membrane architecture.
Phenotypes include fatigue and muscle weakness (6/8), learning difficulties and cognitive impairment (4/8), and increased blood lactate (2/8). Four individuals were asymptomatic carriers, including one male (authors indicate variability in female carriers was due to skewed X-inactivation, although skewing studies were inconclusive in some cases). Variability in clinical presentation suggests reduced penetrance or possible contribution of additional factors.
Functional studies showed altered MICOS assembly and abnormalities in mitochondria ultrastructure in patient-derived fibroblasts. Knockdown studies in Drosophila and yeast demonstrated mitochondrial structural and functional deficiencies.
