      CaseGenotypingMethod PCR amplified then direct sequenced the entire coding region of CBS. (PMID: 9156316): Restriction analysis confirmed the presence of two variants. The variant c.430G>A destroys a TaqI site. Thus, TaqI digestion yielded uncleaved 155bp fragments in both the proband and his father, while the WT was cleaved into 107 and 48bp fragments. The c.1316G>A variant likewise destroys a HapII site. The proband and his father had uncleaved 120bp fragments while the WT had 87 and 33bp fragments on HapII digestion. As both variants were detected in the proband, father, and two paternal aunts, c.1316G>A and c.430G>A were proposed to be in cis.

      AddCaseInfo: Parents were tested and found to have normal Phe levels. The father carriers the termination variant, E87X, the mother harbors the C82R, and both parents are heterozygous for their respective PCBD1 variants.

      VariantEvidence:  For the Glu87Ter variant, Thony et al., PMID: 9585615 showed that the mutant E86X/E87X protein was expressed in E.Coli to determine the solubility of the mutant enzyme and the activity. The mutant E86X/E87X fragment was mostly found in the insoluble fraction of the supernatant. The remaining fraction obtained in the soluble fraction did retain some enzyme activity in vitro. Interestingly, when more E86X/E87X was obtained in the soluble fraction (by growing the E.coli at 20 degrees C), the Km (Michaelis constant) was similar to wildtype levels (text only, no figures to compare).

      For the C82R/C81R variant was analyzed by Ayling et al., 2000 (PMID:10924272) and was found to still be retained in the soluble fraction in bacteria expressing the recombinant protein. Furthermore, enzyme assays show that the soluble C82RPCBD1 variant retained activity, albeit at 40% of the wildtype.

      VariantEvidence: The T78I/T79I variant was retained completely within the insoluble fraction of the E.Coli lysate in which the recombinant proteins were produced. When the soluble fraction was examined for PCBD1 activity, no activity was observed. The authors note that the absence of activity could be due to the absence of the protein in the soluble fraction alone, instead of being indicative of the mutation causing a loss of enzyme activity. Only if the mutant recombinant protein could be retained in the soluble fraction can the true enzyme activity be assessed.

      FamilyGenotypingMethod: Homozygosity mapping and fine mapping in ten members of two consanguineous families (the siblings in whom Hartnup disorder was originally discovered; family A) and in siblings from the US revealed linkage of Hartnup disorder to 5p15 only in family A, with a maximum combined multipoint lod score of 2.31 at 11.24 cM. This confirmed a previous study showing linkage to the same region. Both SLC6A18 and SLC6A19 were investigated for possible pathogenicity, with SLC6A19's pattern of expression supporting it as a primary candidate. Intronic primers were used to bidirectionally sequence each exon and flanking intronic regions, locating a homozygous splice site mutation that perfectly segregated with the phenotype.

      FamilyPreviousTesting: Consistent testing showed the consistent phenotypes were the hyperaminoaciduria among all family members; Linkage analysis for SLC3A2, SLC7A8, SLC1A5, SLC6A18, and SLC6A20 were all negative for amy correlation

      CaseGenotypingMethod: Five loci were investigated for evidence of linkage to Hartnup due to their established role in amino acid transport including SLC3A2, SLC7A8, SLC1A5, SLC6A18, and SLC6A19. These 5 regions were studied with microsattelite markers and produced linkage only between D5S392 and D5S417, the region with SLC6A18 and 19. SLC6A18 did not increase neutral amino acid uptake in X. laevis oocytes so SLC6A19 was investigated and directly sequenced in the families each of which displayed a causal variant.

      CasePreviousTesting: SLC1A5 had no causative variants detected.

    1. We here add our observation of a similar bi-allelic OPA1 case with Behr syndrome. This proband is a 20-year-old Italian boy, born from unrelated parents (Fig. 1A, IV-4 in the pedigree), who presented a congenital nystagmus at birth and bilateral optic atrophy was recognized in the first year of life. He acquired autonomous walking at 14 months of age, but clumsy gait and frequent falls were reported. Motor difficulties and visual acuity worsened during childhood whereas cognitive development was normal. Brain MRI performed at the age of 4 and 7 years were normal. At 6 years of age, neurological examination showed ataxic-spastic gait with positive Romberg sign. Fundus exam confirmed bilateral optic atrophy (Fig. 1B). Tendon reflexes were brisk at the lower limbs and there was bilateral Babinski sign. The patient also had bilateral talipes equinovarus. Nerve conduction studies showed delayed sensory-motor velocities with reduced amplitudes of motor potentials and loss or severe reduction of sensory action potentials. Somatosensory evoked potentials could not be recorded and motor evoked potentials showed absent potentials at lower limbs and delayed latency at upper limbs. Brainstem evoked potentials were delayed bilaterally. Repeated urine organic acid gas chromatography/mass spectrometry analysis revealed mild elevation of 3-methylglutaconic acid (8–20 μmol/mmol creatinine). At muscle biopsy histology was normal and spectrophotometric assessment of the OXPHOS enzymatic activities was normal in muscle homogenate. Sural nerve biopsy demonstrated a marked reduction of the large-diameter myelinated axons (Fig. 1E–G). Teased fibre analysis disclosed regions of demyelination confined to the paranodal region, clustered in some axons, suggesting secondary demyelination. Ultrastructural examination confirmed the reduction of myelinated axons (not shown). A clinical revaluation at 15 years of age demonstrated elevated serum lactic acid after standardized exercise (3.9 mM, normal range 0.6–2.4mM) and optical coherence tomography revealed a generalized reduction of the retinal fibre layer thickness (Fig. 1D). At neurological examination, the patient was wheelchair bound due to severe sensory ataxia and spastic paraparesis and signs of cerebellar dysfunction, such as dysmetria, dysdiadochokinesia and positive Holmes rebound phenomenon, were evident. His vision was light perception with severe nistagmus in any direction of gaze. This clinical picture remained stable in the subsequent years. Figure 1. Open in a new tab (A) Reconstruction of the paternal and maternal genealogies of the proband with Behr syndrome (IV-4). The maternal side is remarkable for segregating isolated optic neuropathy in a dominant fashion associated with the heterozygous c.1705+1G>T splicing mutation. (B–D) Ophthalmological investigations. The fundus picture of the proband (IV-4) reveals severe optic atrophy with bilateral pale optic disc (B). The fundus picture of the mother (III-4) shows only a mild optic atrophy with temporal pallor of the optic discs bilaterally (C). Optical coherence tomography examination of retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) thickness in the proband shows a diffuse reduction of thickness compatible with the severe optic atrophy (D). (E–G) Semithin cross-section of the sural nerve biopsy. A marked depletion of large myelinated axons affects the sural nerve (E and F). At higher magnification some axons appear to have a thin myelin sheath related to the axonal diameter (G). (H–L) Brain MRI and 1HMR spectroscopy studies. On the left (H) the sagittal FSPGR (Fast SPoiled GRadient echo) T1 shows a mild cerebellar atrophy in the proband (IV-4), and on the right (I) a mild pathological accumulation of lactate (rectangle) was detected in the CSF of lateral ventriculi. On the axial FLAIR T2 sequence no signal changes were detected in the proband (IV-4) (J), whereas few focal hyperintensities, related to not specific areas of gliosis, in the cerebral white matter of the proband’s father (III-3) (K) and mother (III-4) (L) were present. TEMP = temporal; SUP = superior; NAS = nasal; INF = inferior; MRI = magnetic resonance imaging; HMR = proton magnetic resonance; CSF = cerebrospinal fluid; FLAIR = Fluid attenuated inversion recovery.The 43-year-old proband’s mother (Fig. 1A, III-4 in the pedigree) had isolated optic atrophy, most evident on the temporal side (Fig. 1C), which segregated as a dominant trait in her family (Fig. 1A). The remaining neurological examination was normal. Nerve conduction velocities and somatosensory evoked potentials were normal. The other affected individuals in this family all suffered a non-syndromic optic atrophy, which started in childhood and progressively worsened, but remained as an isolated symptom. The proband’s father and the elder sister (Fig. 1A, III-3 and IV-3, respectively) are healthy. In particular, neither signs of optic neuropathy nor abnormal nerve conduction velocities were recorded upon neuro-ophthalmological exam. Both parents and the proband have been investigated by brain MRI and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) in a 1.5 T scanner. There were no MRI structural or metabolic abnormalities in the father (III-3) and the mother (III-4) of the proband, except for a few focal hyperintensities in the cerebral white matter (Fig. 1K–L), whereas in the proband mild cerebellar atrophy (Fig. 1H,J) and pathological accumulation of lactate in the CSF of lateral ventriculi (Fig. 1I) were evident. Direct sequencing of the entire coding regions of the OPA1 gene and the flanking intronic boundaries disclosed two heterozygous mutations. The first c.1705+1G>T mutation occurs in intron 17 and involves the highly conserved donor splice site consensus sequence. Analysis of cDNA revealed aberrant transcript splicing with the activation of a cryptic splice donor site in exon 17, which predicts a prematurely truncated gene product (data not shown). This haploinsufficiency mutation was also identified in the affected mother and in nine maternal relatives, three of which (III-10, III-14 and III-18) are clinically unaffected (Fig. 1A). The second mutation identified in the proband is missense, c.1146A>G (p.I382M), which lies in exon 12, being also present in the clinically unaffected father and sister. Interestingly this is the same missense mutation already reported in other bi-allelic cases (Schaaf et al., 2011; Bonifert et al., 2014). This mutation was found only in one other patient in Italy, out of 132 OPA1 complete sequences. This patient is currently under investigation, being another case of Behr syndrome with optic atrophy complicated by ataxia, but with only the heterozygous c.1146A>G (p.I382M) mutation at the moment (Leonardo Caporali and Valerio Carelli, unpublished data). In the Tübingen cohort of patients with bilateral optic atrophy (in most cases isolated optic atrophy) no further case with the c.1146A>G mutation was found among ∼500 patients that underwent sequencing of all coding exons of the OPA1 gene. This mutation has also been found at low frequency (about 1/1000) in large public data sets (1000 Genome Project, NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project). Sequence analysis of the OPA3 gene excluded the presence of pathogenic mutations. Fibroblasts were grown from skin biopsies obtained from the proband and both parents, after approval of the Internal Review Board and signed informed consent. In fibroblasts we first assessed mitochondrial network morphology, after loading mitochondria with Mitotracker Red and examination by fluorescence microscopy as previously reported (Zanna et al., 2008). The mitochondrial network of fibroblasts grown in standard Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium-glucose medium bearing the heterozygous c.1705+1G>T (III:4) and c.1146A>G (III:3) mutations, respectively was similar to controls (Fig. 2A–C), whereas the fibroblasts from the proband were scored into three categories, those with a typical normal filamentous network (Fig. 2D), those with a hyperfragmented pattern (Fig. 2E) and those with filamentous mitochondria containing balloon-like structures (Fig. 2F), each class being present at approximately the same percentage. To investigate whether these OPA1 mutations could affect the bioenergetic efficiency, we measured the rate of mitochondrial ATP synthesis in digitonin-permeabilized fibroblasts. Compared to controls, mitochondrial ATP synthesis driven by complex I substrates (pyruvate and malate) was increased in the proband’s father fibroblasts (III:3) bearing the c.1146A>G mutation, and incrementally reduced in the mother’s fibroblasts bearing the c.1705+1G>T (III:4) mutation and in the proband’s fibroblasts (IV:4) carrying both mutations. The latter was significantly lower compared to his father’s fibroblasts. A similar but less severe situation was observed for the ATP synthesis driven by the complex II substrate (succinate) (Fig. 2G). Overall, these results indicate that the biallelic mutation in the proband led to abnormal network dynamics and impaired ATP synthesis through complex I. Both parent’s mutations were not severe enough to impair mitochondrial network dynamics under the experimental conditions used, but the mother’s mutation impaired partially complex I-dependent ATP synthesis. Figure 2. Open in a new tab (A–F) Mitochondrial network morphology. Control (A) and patient (B–F) fibroblasts were grown in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium-glucose and loaded with Mitotracker Red as described in Zanna et al. (2008). Representative out of eight similar images are shown for each individual. (G) ATP synthesis. Fibroblasts were treated with 50 µg/ml digitonin, the rate of ATP synthesis was measured as described in Zanna et al. (2008) and was normalized for citrate synthase (CS) activity. Data (mean ± SEM) were obtained from five controls and the three OPA1 mutated fibroblasts. The experiment was performed at least in triplicate. Asterisk denotes values significantly different (P < 0.05) by Kruskal-Wallis one-way ANOVA on Ranks. GPD = Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase.

    1. A 5-year-old south Asian female was incidentally found to have hepatomegaly on a trip to India, where she became acutely ill with fever, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Blood work done at that time demonstrated mildly elevated liver function tests (AST 48 U/L, ALT 80 U/L), and an abdominal ultrasound revealed hepatomegaly without biliary or splenic abnormalities. She was prescribed an antibiotic and her symptoms gradually resolved.A month after her return to the United States, her pediatrician noted persistent hepatomegaly and the new development of fever. She was referred to the emergency department because of suspicion of a tropical infectious disease. A repeat ultrasound demonstrated persistent hepatomegaly. Her transaminases (AST 133 U/L, ALT 112 U/L) remained elevated. The infectious workup was negative for cytomegalovirus, hepatitis A, Lyme disease, and malaria. She did have a positive Epstein-Barr virus IgM. Repeat blood work was obtained at follow-up infectious disease clinic visit where she was again found to have hepatomegaly (7 cm below the costal margin) and mildly abnormal transaminases. A computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis (Figure 1) was performed that demonstrated hepatomegaly but had otherwise normal findings. Her fever resolved within 2 weeks. She was otherwise well and was not on any medications. There was no family history of liver disease. Her immunizations were up to date. Because of persistent hepatomegaly, she was referred to the liver clinic.Open in a separate windowFigure 1Computed tomography of abdomen and pelvis. The liver is enlarged, measuring up to 17 cm in width and craniocaudal dimension. The contour is smooth. The hepatic parenchyma is homogenous without a focal mass. There is no intrahepatic biliary dilatation. The portal and hepatic venous systems are patent and nondilated.In the liver clinic, she was noted to have an enlarged, firm liver, palpable 8 cm below the costal margin with no associated splenomegaly. Test results for autoimmune hepatitis, WD, and alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency were negative. Nonfasting lipid levels were abnormal; repeat testing showed a fasting total cholesterol of 305 mg/dL and a triglyceride level of 142 mg/dL.On the basis of a clinical suspicion of a diagnosis of CESD, a liver biopsy was performed. It revealed diffuse, microvesicular steatosis in the hepatic parenchyma (Figure 2(a)). Portal tracts were expanded by foamy macrophages containing finely vacuolated material, which was periodic acid-Schiff positive and resistant to diastase digestion. Trichrome stain for collagen showed mild portal fibrosis with early delicate bridging fibrosis. Ultrastructurally, the cytoplasm had a moth-eaten appearance with the presence of lipid droplets and cholesterol crystals (Figure 2(b)). There was no evidence of hepatocellular necrosis, cholestasis, or bile duct proliferation.Open in a separate windowFigure 2(a) Liver biopsy, periodic acid-Schiff stain with diastase (magnification, ×40). Lipid demonstrated within the hepatocellular cytoplasm (arrows). (b) Electron micrograph (direct magnification, ×2500). The hepatocellular cytoplasm in places has a moth-eaten appearance with lipid droplets (arrows). Additionally, some foci show cholesterol crystals (∗) free in the hepatocellular cytoplasm.Liver tissue was sent to Dr. D. Wenger's Lysosomal Diseases Testing Laboratory at Thomas Jefferson University. She was found to have a low acid lipase activity of 7.2 (no units provided by Dr. D. Wenger's laboratory) in the liver. Follow-up testing through a commercial laboratory demonstrated low level of lysosomal acid lipase activity (0.008 nmol/punch/h) in blood. Lysosomal acid lipase gene sequence analysis was performed, which demonstrated that she was heterozygous for the following two mutations: c.57_60delTGAG and c.894G>A. Both parents underwent mutation analysis. The mother was confirmed to have the c.894G>A mutation while the father carried the c.57_60delTGAG mutation. The c.57_60delTGAG is a new mutation not previously described in the literature in patients with CESD.Go to:

      gnomAD: This proband has a four-nucleotide deletion, c.57_60delTGAG, in exon 2 of the LIPA gene. This variant is predicted to result in a premature translation stop downstream of the deletion (p.Glu20GlyfsTer6). The variant is not present in gnomAD. This proband is scored default points.

      This proband has a synonymous variant, Gln298= on exon 8/10 in a cononical splice site, which causes an abnormal splicing that results in the in-frame skipping of exon 8. The variant is reported in 167/128942 European (non-Finnish) alleles at a frequency of 0.001295, with no homozygotes in gnomAD v2.1.1. This is the most frequent variant in CESD patients (present in 40-60% of patients reported in the literature), but it is not confirmed if this is due to a hotspot or a common ancestor. This proband is scored default points.

      GenotypingMethod: Genetic testing of the OPA1 gene was initially performed by a combined analysis using either single-strand conformation polymorphism or denaturing high performance liquid chromatography followed by Sanger sequencing to validate aberrant bands or melting profiles. The presence of copy number variations was assessed using multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification. Since 2012, genetic testing was based on next-generation sequencing platforms.

WES identified mutations in the UGT1A7 gene (c.654A>C) within the shared chromosome 2 region, as well as ARMC( (c.879G>A). They also found mutations in the gene ZFPM1 (c.1331_1339delinsCCC), but this was not within any shared region of homozygosity between the siblings.

      VariantEvidence: The ARMC9 c.879G>A synonymous mutation is the last base in exon 9 (of 21 total exons) and is predicted to alter splicing. ARMC9 was transcribed into the pCAS2 minigene system and expressed in COS7 cells. RT-PCR of the transfected cells showed skipping of exon 9 in the mutant (Mt) cells compared to ARMC9 wildtype (Wt) cells that retained exon 9 (Figure 2). Sanger sequencing of the ARMC9-pCAS_Mt vector showed a 99 base pair deletion of exon 9 (Supplementary Figure 1), which is a loss of 33 amino acids encoded by exon 9. Exon 9 of ARMC9 encodes part of the ARM Domain 1 which is highly conserved among several speciies. Structural modeling indicates that the loss of the 33 amino acids (aa261-293) would critically disrupt the structure of ARMC9 ( Figure 3).

Trio-sequencing analysis to detect putativede novo variants was not possible because of the unavailability of paternal DNA for Patient NIJ and parental DNA for Patient AW.

      Functional evidence: Drosophila fly GDAP2 model supports a role of GDAP2 in motor behaviour and suggests that cellular stress might be driving the neurodegenerative cascade. Ubiquitous Gdap2 RNAi-1 knockdown results in droopy wings. Gdap2 knockdown does not result in increased levels of apoptotic cell death in central brain upon 18 hours paraquat exposure.

    1. A 46-year-old Spanish male (Patient 1) born to healthy and non-consanguineous parents was referred because of a long history of muscle cramps and fasciculations affecting upper and lower limbs with onset during adolescence and associated to stutter speech. He had developed muscle weakness a few years prior to the visit affecting his ability to climb stairs or stand up from sitting and had recently started with falls when going downstairs. Neurological examination revealed diffuse fasciculations in lower limbs and mild weakness affecting both psoas and quadriceps that were atrophic (Fig. 1A). Tendon reflexes were hypoactive in lower limbs and normal in upper limbs. Sensory examination was normal. There was no spasticity and plantar reflexes were flexor. There were no signs of cerebellar involvement. Examination of the cranial nerves was normal without involvement of the bulbar muscles. Speech was described by speech therapists as spastic with a dystonic component leading to evident stuttering (Supplemental video 1).

    1. RESULTS Gene and mutation identification Analysis of the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) microarray genotypes from six patients with PHID identified a single common 1.4 Mb region of shared homozygosity within cytogenetic band 10q22.1, between SNPs rs10509321 and rs1900515 (Fig. 1A). Inspection of the Ensembl and UCSC Genome Browsers demonstrated that the region included 14 known and predicted genes: ADAMTS14, C10orf27, CDH23, EIF4EBP2, LRRC2, KIAA1274, NODAL, NPFFR1, PCBD1, PPA1, PRF1, SLC29A3, SGPL1, UNC5B. Positional candidate genes were selected for sequencing in order to identify pathogenic mutations (Fig. 1B). Five different homozygous mutations were identified in the SLC29A3 gene encoding the equilibrative nucleoside transporter 3 (Fig. 1C, Table 1). Human ENT3 has been shown recently to be the cause of H syndrome, an autosomal recessive disorder with overlapping skin features to PHID (6), indicating that these are allelic disorders. hENT3 belongs to a structurally unique protein family of nucleoside and/or nucleobase transporters (13,14). The five homozygous mutations identified segregated with the disease within each family and were not present in over 100 Lebanese and Pakistani control chromosomes.

The deletion causes a frame shift mutation p.Y314Tfs in transmembrane domain 7 and is predicted to result in the substitution of transmembrane domains 8–11 with an irrelevant protein sequence of 91 amino acids derived from an alternate reading frame. The nonsense mutation p.E444X is predicted to lead to premature protein truncation with loss of part of the final cytoplasmic domain and transmembrane domain 11 of hENT3. It would appear unlikely that the either residual protein would be capable of nucleoside transport function.Three homozygous missense mutations of SLC29A3 were identified to involve conserved amino acids (Table 1). The first missense mutation involves Methionine116 in transmembrane domain 2, which is a hydrophobic amino acid in species as distantly related as humans and nematodes, with a large basic amino acid, Arginine (p.M116R; Fig. 1C and E). The Grantham score for this substitution is 91, which is classified as a moderate change (15). Analysis using the SIFT prediction software also classifies this as a likely deleterious change (16). The introduction of a large basic amino acid into a transmembrane domain would likely result in significant disruption of the hydrophobic nature of the domain and result in retention of the transporter protein within the endoplasmic reticulum, as has been demonstrated for other membrane proteins (17).The second missense change is a recently reported Glycine to Arginine substitution at hENT3 amino acid 437 (p.G437R Fig. 1C), which is located in the putative cytoplasmic domain between transmembrane domains 10 and 11. This is the only mutation in the PHID cohort that is shared with the known mutations in H syndrome. Of particular interest is the observation that this is the sole individual in the PHID cohort who has not developed insulin-dependent DM. The p.G437R change involves the substitution of a large basic amino acid at a position where 41 members of the ENT family as distantly related as humans and Arabidopsis thaliana encode a small hydrophobic amino acid (Fig. 1E) (18). The Grantham difference for this change is 125 and is classified as a moderately radical change.The third missense change occurs at hENT3 amino acid residue 449, which is also located in the final putative intracellular domain between transmembrane domains 10 and 11, and involves the substitution of a Threonine by an Arginine (p.T449R). The amino acids encoded at this position in hENT3 orthologs are small polar/uncharged or small hydrophobic residues (Fig. 1E). Substitution by arginine is associated with a Grantham score of 71 and is predicted by SIFT as not to be tolerated.

However, a glycosyltransferase assay using the wildtype EXTL3 and th eP318L variant showed reduced enzyme activity in the P318L variant compared to wildtype, and simiar levels of activity as untransfected/ mock controls. This indicates the P318L mutation acts as a loss of protein function of the enzyme activity.

      MonDO: MONDO:0032706

      Case: 58-year-old male of Greek origin presenting with a progressive cerebellar syndrome starting at the age of 33 years with mild gait imbalance, ataxia and dysarthria. Apart from dyslipidaemia, type 2 diabetes, and chronic diarrhoea presenting at 37 years of age and attributed to irritable bowel syndrome, the rest of the patient’s medical history is unremarkable. Proband has NM_017686.4; c.134delC with mother as carrier.

      DiseaseAssertion: Cerebellar ataxia

      FamilyInfo: His relatives have reported personality changes with emotional lability, aggressive behaviour and depressive episodes. Family history is negative for neurological disorders. Both parents originated from the same small village but there was no known consanguinity in the family

      CasePreviousTesting: Neurological examination at the age of 50, when the proband was first seen, showed severe gait ataxia with mild pyramidal features consisting of brisk reflexes, dysmetria, dysdiadochokinesia, cerebellar dysarthria, jerky pursuit and nystagmus, mild behavioural changes, and disturbances of short-term memory. Follow-up neurological examination at the age of 58, revealed severe gait disturbance, dysmetria, dysdiadochokinesia and brisk deep tendon reflexes with flexor plantar responses, as well as gaze-evoked nystagmus, jerky pursuit, hypermetric saccades, cerebellar dysarthria, and mild sensory loss in the lower limbs (Supplementary Video 1). Scale for the assessment and rating of ataxia (SARA) score at that time was 31/40 and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score was 24/30. A detailed neuropsychological assessment was performed, revealing widespread deficits in encoding, learning, and consolidating new verbal information. Overall, the patient exhibited prominent deficits in episodic memory, verbal working memory, and executive functions. A brain MRI scan, including susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI), was performed and revealed marked cerebellar atrophy affecting the hemispheres and more significantly the vermis, as well as mild cortical atrophy, midbrain and pons atrophy. Nerve conduction studies (NCS), electromyography (EMG) and ophthalmological evaluation were all normal. Laboratory testing of alpha-fetoprotein levels, vitamin E, copper, and folic acid were also normal. To exclude the possibility of an underlying autoimmune disease, the patient’s serum was tested for binding to various markers, including a panel of paraneoplastic markers of autoimmunity, GAD, NMDA, AMPA, GABAB, DPPX and VGKC, as well as monkey cerebellum frozen tissue. No binding to any of these markers was detected.

      GenotypingMethod: Blood samples from the proband and his mother were collected for whole exome sequencing ans Sanger confirmation. Initial screening for Friedreich’s ataxia, as well as spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) types 1, 2, 3, 6 and 7 in the proband was negative.

      VariantEvidence: PMID:8162015 previously reported this variant to be associated with the infantile form of SD. A fibroblast line from this patient with the infantile form of the disease was investigated for mutations by single strand conformation polymorphism analysis and direct sequencing of PCR products. A nonsense mutation was found which generated a stop codon at codon 284. The study investigated the steady-state level of mRNA produced by cells containing stop codons using a competitive polymerase chain reaction technique and found that at codon 284, the mRNA levels were 0.8%, as percent of normal per single gene dose.

This intronic mutation affects the 5' donor site of intron 13 and results in insertion of 48 nucleotides which shifts the reading frame and results in the generation of a PTC.
