Added comment: Three individuals who each share a recurrent de novo germline variant in the MAX gene, resulting in a p.Arg60Gln substitution in the loop of the b-HLH-LZ domain.

Affected individuals have a complex disorder consisting primarily of macrocephaly, polydactyly, and delayed ophthalmic development. Other phenotypes reported include intellectual disability, perianal abscesses, pectus carinatum, hypospadias, renal agenesis, single umbilical artery, flattened thoracic vertebrae.

Functional analysis of the p.Arg60Gln variant shows a significant increase in CCND2 protein and a more efficient heterodimerization with c-Myc resulting in an increase in transcriptional activity of c-Myc.

PMID: 34653363 - 16 patients from 9 families with new AD mode of inheritance (both de novo and inherited). All variants were missense within/around acritical active/catalytic sites. Patients aged 3-55yo, with children noted to be "healthy" until reaching young adulthood
Clinical features include dysmorphic features, macrocephaly (6/16), mild-moderate ID/DD (10/16), short stature (8/16), skeletal abnormalities (10/16), muscle cramps (7/16).
Functional studies verifies AR disease is caused by LOF variants, whereas the AD variants cause DN proven by cotransfection in WT yeast resulting in impaired glycosylation (protein levels unchanged).

Added comment: Single report of a de novo missense p.T58M in an individual with a novel megalencephaly syndrome, a Japanese boy with an intellectual disability (ID), distinctive facies, megalencephaly, ventriculomegaly, hypoplastic corpus callosum, postnatal growth retardation, postaxial polydactyly and neuroblastoma.

Biochemical and cell biology experiments revealed that the mutation renders MYCN resistant to proteolysis and may improperly potentiate cortical neuron proliferation. MYCN activity regulates granule neuron proliferation through induction of CCND1 and CCND2, and this syndrome was similar to CCND2 gene abnormalities that impart excessive protein stability cause megalencephaly-polymicrogyria-polydactyly-hydrocephalus syndrome. This residue is also frequently mutated in c-Myc in Burkitt’s lymphoma (also due to GoF by gene amplification), consistent with its functions in cell proliferation and differentiation.
