Mackenzie's Mission_Reproductive Carrier Screening v0.31 ACADM Sarah Righetti changed review comment from: MUTATIONAL AND CLINICAL SPECTRUM: Most common variant is NM_000016.6:c.985A>G p.K329E (p.K304E in mature protein) seen hom/chet in patients with classical MCAD deficiency, also seen chet in asymptomatic siblings. Beware existence of pseudodeficiency alleles (e.g. chet c.199T>C p.Y67H) where individuals have reduced enzymatic activity and so are positive on NBS but do not usually have clinical symptoms.

TREATMENT: Covered on NBS, generally very successful treatment with mainly dietary management. However 3 neonates in past year at WCH who have had cardiac/respiratory arrests before 48 hours (i.e. prior to NBS results being available). There are a number of babies who have died or had brain damage as a result of hypoglycemia prior to the test being taken.

Summary: GREEN; meets MM panel inclusion criteria where early diagnosis can lead to more effective treatment. Counsel accordingly.

Phenotypes for gene: ADPRHL2 were set to Neurodegeneration, childhood-onset, stress-induced, with variable ataxia and seizures, MIM#618170
Review for gene: ADPRHL2 was set to GREEN
Added comment: Fourteen unrelated families reported with stress-induced childhood-onset neurodegeneration with variable ataxia and seizures (CONDSIAS), an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder with onset in the first years of life following normal early development. The disorder is characterised by cyclic episodic deterioration in response to stress, such as infection or febrile illness. The severity is highly variable: some individuals develop seizures early in life that are associated with loss of developmental milestones and early sudden death in childhood, whereas others present at a later age with muscle weakness, gait ataxia, impaired speech, more subtle clinical deterioration, and cognitive decline. Neurologic involvement includes gait ataxia, cerebellar signs associated with cerebellar atrophy, generalized brain atrophy, impaired intellectual development, hearing loss, and peripheral neuropathy.

New HGNC approved name is ADPRS.

Review for gene: YIF1B was set to GREEN
Added comment: 6 individuals (from 5 families) with biallelic YIF1B truncating variants reported. Presenting features: hypotonia, failure to thrive, microcephaly (5/6), severe global DD and ID as well as features suggestive of a motor disorder (dystonia/spasticity/dyskinesia). Seizures were reported in 2 unrelated individuals (2/6). MRI abnormalities were observed in some with thin CC being a feature in 3. Affected individuals were found to be homozygous for truncating variants (4/5 families being consanguineous). The following 3 variants were identified (NM_001039672.2) : c.186dupT or p.Ala64fs / c.360_361insACAT or p.Gly121fs / c.598G>T or p.Glu200*. Yif1B KO mice demonstrate a disorganized Golgi architecture in pyramidal hippocampal neurons (Alterio et al 2015 - PMID: 26077767). Functional/network analysis of genes co-regulated with YIF1B based on available RNAseq data, suggest enrichement in in genes important for nervous system development and function.
