      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.

      HPOsFreeText Phenotype was classified as "severe," with passive or static dystonia and an inability to stand up, walk, or speak. Patient may have gone undetected by routine screens as glutarate excretion was normal and 3-hydroxyglutarate was only slightly increased.

      CaseMethod1 SSCP

      CaseMethod2 Sanger

      CaseGenotypingMethod PCR amplified and SSCP screened 11 exons and intron boundaries of GCDH gene. Confirmed variants with Sanger sequencing and restriction digest. The V400M variant creates an NlaIII restriction site. Thus, while the patient's DNA fragments would cleave, control fragments would not be cleaved. Likewise, the R227P variant creates a NlaIV site. This would lead to cleaved patient DNA fragments and uncleaved control fragments.

      CaseMethod2 Sanger

      CaseGenotypingMethod PCR amplified and SSCP screened 11 exons and intron boundaries of GCDH gene. Confirmed variants with Sanger sequencing and restriction digest.

      CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0008297, HP:0001252, HP:0001270

      HPOText: Phe levels were 9 umol/L on day 1, 756 ummol/L on day 28. Primapterinuria was diagnosed on day 8. Following oral BH4 administration (2 mg/kg/d), neopterin normalized, and biopterin as well as primapterin increased about eight-fold; the same results were observed when dihydrobiopterin and sepiapterin were administered. At 8.5 years old, on a normal diet, the patient is developing normally with no HyperPhe.

      AddCaseInfo: Family history (Family S) of HyperPhe, as the patients older brother, T.S./ BIODEF212, who is 1.5 years older, showed the same biochemical pattern and is now considered normal and normally developing.

      At 8.5 years old, on a normal diet, the patient J.S. is developing normally with no HyperPhe.

      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.

      HPOText: Neonatal (3 days old) plasma screen showed Phe levels at 183 umol/L, which is below the normal cutoff. Repeat screen was only performed at 3 weeks old in which the Phe level was shown to be 1600 umol/L. Peak Phe level was at 3.5 weeks and was 2589 umol/L. Child had considerable Phe tolerance ( ~100mg/kg). Initial neopterin-to-biopterin ratio of 15. A BH4-loading test (6 mg/kg) at age 6 wk showed only a slight response (Phe at 0 h, 731 μmol/liter; at 3 h, 612 μmol/liter; and at 6 h, 502 μmol/liter). A week later, at a BH4 dose of 22 mg/kg, there was a definite response (Phe at 0 h, 773 μmol/liter; at 3 h, 517 μmol/liter; and at 6 h, 155 μmol/liter). CSF neurotransmitter concentrations were normal, suggesting a peripheral deficiency. At 4 months of age, the BH4 was discontinued, no low Phe diet, and the Phe levels have remained normal. at 3.5 years, patient developing normally.

      AddCaseInfo: Family E in the article, and the proband had an older sibling that also carried the homozygous mutation in PCBD1, she was not noted as having increased Phe plasma levels, nor was ever treated with BH4 or low-Phe diet.

      VariantEvidence: The mutant Q97X protein was expressed in E.Coli to determine the solubility of the mutant enzyme and the activity. The mQ97X fragment was mostly found in the insoluble fraction of the supernatant. The remaining fraction obtained in the soluble fraction did retain some activity in vitro. Interestingly, when more Q97X was obtained in the soluble fraction (by growing the E.coli at 20 degrees C), the Km (Michaelis constant) was 2-3 times higher than wildtype (text only, no figures to compare).

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 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.

      Notes Proband with confirmed aniridia and confirmed de novo appearance of the variant, summary in table 1, proband information in the "splice variant" section. It is noted however that the authors do not include the parental genotype or phenotype data.

      Clinical Lab The Wessex Regional Genetics Laboratory has been contacted for variants c.333C>A and c.1183G>C, there is no additional information than what is in the table and if familial or de novo is claimed it is because parental samples were collected and tested negative for the variant in the published proband

    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.

    1. RESULTS

      NonHumanModel: Vervet Monkeys (Chlorocebus pygerythrus)

      GeneAlteration: PCR amplification and direct sequencing indicated that all of the vervet monkeys observed and one of the malbrouck monkeys had the TTR Ile122 allele, as opposed to the the other primates (including humans) that harbor the Met122 allele. Other than this variant, the sequence was identical to three other species of monkeys that did not demonstrate amyloidosis phenotypes including 95-98%, 93-94%, and 76-81% amino acid homologies to humans.

      HumanPhenotype: HP:0001627, HP:0011034 (Abnormal heart morphology, Amyloidosis)

      HumanFreeText: N/A

      ModelEvidence: Aged vervet monkeys were investigated for a naturally-occuring spontaneous systemic amyloidosis and accompanying phenotypes. PCR amplification and direct sequencing of these monkeys and others showed that the vervet monkeys alone harbored the Ile122 allele, as opposed to the more common Val122 allele in other primates and humans. Histopathological investigations showed cardiac amyloidosis and rigid amyloid fibers in the heart, identical to that observed in aged humans with the allele in question. These deposits were also found in other systems such as the gastrointestinal tract, adipose tissue, lung, tongue, and vascular walls, also mirroring the multiple locations they were found in humans. Immunoblotting confirmed that amyloid proteins extracted from the cardiac specimens reacted with anti-TTR antibody. Other cardiac symptoms were observed that mirror those in humans, such as arrythmia and reduced ehection fraction. Real-time PCR showed that these monkeys and humans shared the majority of TTR expression patterns. Recombinant monkey TTRs showed a greater tendency to dissociate to monomers under the influence of urea-mediated denaturation stress than recombinant TTR of the cynomolgus monkey, which had the Val122 allele. ThT-binding assay also showed a higher number of amyloid fibers in the recombinant than the cynomolgus.

    1. RESULTS

      NonHumanModel: Mouse (Mus musculus)

      GeneAlteration: CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing was used to produce gene-edited mouse zygotes. This was accomplished by designing a guide RNA (gRNA) with the CRISPR design tool and microinjecting the gRNA complex along with Cas9 mRNA and a ultramer repair template including the single deletion into mouse zygotes. This directs double-strand breaks in the genome with homology directed repair causing the precise genome edit necessary. These were injected into psuedo-pregnant C57BL/6J mice. After birth, tail DNA was genotyped via PCR and Sanger seuqencing to confirm the mutation. One heterozygous 525delT mouse was crossed and the offspring backcrossed onto DBA/2J background until the F5 generation confirmed homozygous for the severe LTBP4 allele which results in a more severe disease progression. RT-PCR confirmed the presence of the deletion and loss of γ-sarcoglycan was confirmed via immunoblot analysis and immunofluorescence microscopy.

      HumanFreeText: N/A

      ModelEvidence: This model has many positive aspects compared to the default mouse model, although it also has some challenges to overcome. In terms of the generation, CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing via HDR is a relatively simple way to modify the genome as needed and create only the variant of interest while leaving the rest untouched. This results in a knock-in with a reasonable assurance that whatever phenotypes are displayed stem solely from the change in the SGCG gene. Specifically the muscle atrophy, elevated serum creatine kinase, progressive weakness (half the strength of controls at 4 months), and signifiacntly increased muscle fibrosis/necrosis are all hallmarks of the human LGMD presentation and are recapitulated here. However, the presence of a known muscular dystrophy-modifying background raises the question of whether some of these phenotypes would not be seen in a mouse with the C57BL/6J background. Unfortunately this is not answered in the paper, so it introduces some doubt as to the total validity of the results.

    1. Twelve human C1 inhibitor P1 variants were constructed by site-directed mutagenesis of the codon for arginine 444 and were expressed in COS-1 cells to analyze the functional properties.

      Transiently transfected COS-1 cells were assayed for the presence of C1 inhibitor antigen with the mAb RII RIA (21). Expression levels of all P1 variants were comparable to wild type. . Lysates of transfected COS cells did contain recombinant C1 inhibitor P1 stop antigen, but in substantially lower amounts than the other P1 variants. This indicates that the premature stop codon results in an aberrantly folded protein, which is degraded intracellularly.

      P1 His retained the ability to complex with target proteases, but considerably higher amounts of this variant was required compared to recombinant wild-type C1 inhibitor.

      P1 Cys was shown to be nonfunctional in kinetic analyses.

      Conclusion: P1-Cys variant is nonfunctional toward Cls, beta-factor XIIa, kallikrein, and plasmin. The low activity of P1-His toward Cls is probably not physiologically relevant.

      FamilyPreviousTesting: Authors stated that homozygosity mapping did not identify any significant CNVs. Loss of heterozygosity (greater than 1kb) were observed over all affected siblings in shromosome 2, 7, 10, and 14. The Chromosome 2q had a 11Mb region with 141 genes, of which none were associateed with ID, ptosis, and polydactyly together.

      FamilyGenotypingMethod: Homozygosity mapping, using SNP array analysis ( Illumina Human-CytoSNO-12v2.1. DNA) on the entire family (including parents), and exome sequencing in all the siblings. All mutations were confirmed by Sanger sequencing in the proband, parents, siblings (affected and unaffected) and a control was used. 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. Neither UGT1A7 or ZFPM1 is associated with a disease/ phenotype per OMIM.

      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).

      FamilyAddInfo: 12 individuals carried MYH7-A719H, and 16 carried MYOZ2-L169G. Among the 12 subjects who were clinically diagnosed with HCM, 7 carried both MYH7-A719H and MYOZ2-L169G, 4 had only MYH7-A719H, and 1 did not possess either mutation. Those who carried only the MYH7 mutation had mild LV hypertrophy or normal heart function and morphology, and all experienced only chest discomfort or no symptoms at all after activities. Ten of the subjects who carried only the MYOZ2 mutation showed no LV hypertrophy, abnormal ECG or echocardiographic findings, or discomfort. The 7 patients with both MYH7-A719H and MYOZ2-L169G had more serious symptoms, commonly complaining of palpitation and dyspnea. During the follow-up period, 1 of these subjects experienced SCD, and another suffered from myocardial infarction without obvious hyperlipidemia. Compared with subjects with only MYH7-A719H or MYOZ2-L169G mutation, patients with both the MYH7-A719H and MYOZ2-L169G mutations had the largest median left atrial diameter (Kruskal–Wallis test, P = 0.015) and the highest frequency of cardiovascular events (Fisher exact test, P = 0.007). The MYOZ2-L169G mutation alone was not found to be pathogenic, but it did appear to play a modifying role in HCM.

    1. Anti-lipoate antibody detected strongly decreased levels of the expected lipoylated E2 subunits of α-oxoacid dehydrogenases in fibroblasts of individuals P1 and P2, whereas normal bands were seen in the control (Figure 3A). In fibroblasts of an individual with LIPT1 deficiency,7 these bands were undetectable (Figure 3A). Moreover, immunofluorescence staining examined by a confocal microscopy showed absence of protein lipoylation in P1 and P2 fibroblasts (Figure 3B).

      ExperimentName: Reduced E2-lipoylation in LIPT2 patient cells

      PatientCell: Fibroblast (not specified where it was derived)

      GeneAlteration: Patient fibroblasts from P1 harboring the LIPT2 c.89T>C(p.Leu30Pro) and c.377T>G(Leu126Arg) and fibrobalsts from P2 harboring the c.377T>G(Leu126Arg) and c.314T>G(p.Leu105Pro) were used in this assay.

      FunctionalEvidence: Patient fibroblasts both from P1 and P2, both with compound heterozygous mutation in LIPT2 that represent 3 different variants (one overlaps), were assayed for E2 lipoylation in PDHc and alpha-KGDHc (Figure 3), compared to control cells. The assay indicates reduced lipoylation of both PDHc and alpha KGSHc compared to controls both by western blot (Figure 3A) and immunocytochemistry (figure 3B). the reduction in lipoylation was consistent with that observed in patients with LIPT1 mutations, indicating a role for LIPT2 in lipoylation.

    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).
