Ataxia - paediatric
Gene: EXOSC5
- PMID: 32504085 (2020) - Five patients from four families with biallelic variants in EXOSC5. Clinical features included short stature (3/5), developmental delays that affect motor skills (3/5), hypotonia (4/5), ataxia (3/4), cerebellar hypoplasia/atrophy (4/5). Cognitive function was generally preserved, but included mild speech delays in one patient. Cerebellar ataxia was described in two sibs and one singleton - all of whom were compound heterozygous for the p.Thr114Ile variant, inherited in trans with a frameshift variant (p.His30Thrfs*35) or deletion involving exons 5–6 of EXOSC5, respectively. A LoF zebrafish model resulted in a variety of morphological defects including shortened and curved tails/bodies, reduced eye/head size and oedema. Functional studies of the variants in budding yeast and cultured cells showed some defects in RNA exosome function and interactions, that could not be explained by decrease in the steady-state level of EXOSC5.
- PMID: 29302074 (2019) - Three sibs with a homozygous EXOSC5 variant (p.Thr114Ile), associated with mild motor delays, cerebellar ataxia, nystagmus, dysarthria, and moderate ID. The family is also described in PMID: 30950035. No functional studies of the variant were undertaken.
