Gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a cytoplasmic membrane-associated protein that indirectly coordinates endocytic membrane traffic with the actin assembly machinery. In addition, the encoded protein may regulate the formation of clathrin-coated vesicles and could be involved in synaptic vesicle recycling. This protein has been shown to interact with dynamin, CDC42, SNAP23, SNAP25, SPIN90, EPS15, EPN1, EPN2, and STN2. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene, but the full-length nature of only two of them have been characterized so far. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Genetic evidence – Published (AR scope): No scorable published cases of biallelic (autosomal recessive) ITSN1 variants causing neurodevelopmental disorder were identified in the current literature review. Available published human data primarily describe heterozygous (autosomal dominant) de novo variants, which are outside the scope of this AR GDR. Case-level = 0; segregation = 0; case-control = 0 Published (AD context; not scored for AR): PMID: 34709922 – Reports individuals with de novo heterozygous ITSN1 variants associated with neurodevelopmental phenotypes including intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, and epilepsy. As these represent monoallelic/dominant cases, they are not scorable under the autosomal recessive framework. Case-level = 0 (AR scope); segregation = 0; case-control = 0 PMID: 28773821 – Large neurodevelopmental cohort identifying de novo heterozygous variants in ITSN1 in individuals with developmental delay and autism spectrum disorder; not applicable to AR scoring. Case-level = 0 (AR scope); segregation = 0; case-control = 0 AD-context evidence total (not scored for AR) = 0 Provisional classification Limited evidence for ITSN1-related autosomal recessive neurodevelopmental disorder. No published biallelic cases are currently available; the only genetic evidence derives from one unpublished consanguineous family with a homozygous predicted loss-of-function variant. Experimental support is limited to biological plausibility derived from autosomal dominant neurodevelopmental studies. Published genetic evidence total = 0/12 Genetic evidence – Our cases: Family 1 –one proband. Case-level (biallelic predicted null in AR model; homozygous scored once; −0.5 consanguinity deduction applied) = 1.0; segregation = 0; case-control = 0; Family 1 total = 1.0 Our cases total = 1.0/12 Total genetic evidence (published AR + our cases) 1.0/12 Experimental evidence – Published: PMID: 34709922; PMID: 28773821 – De novo heterozygous ITSN1 variants have been reported in individuals with autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disability, and epilepsy, supporting involvement of ITSN1 in neurodevelopment. Functional studies demonstrate that ITSN1 encodes a neuronal scaffold protein involved in synaptic vesicle endocytosis and neuronal signaling, and mouse models show neurobehavioral abnormalities when ITSN1 is disrupted. Although these findings relate primarily to autosomal dominant effects, they provide biological plausibility that disruption of ITSN1 impacts neurodevelopment.

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_003024.3. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Acts as guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) specific for the CDC42 GTPase (By similarity). Adapter protein that may provide indirect link between the endocytic membrane traffic and the actin assembly machinery. May regulate the formation of clathrin-coated vesicles. Involved in endocytosis of integrin beta-1 (ITGB1) and transferrin receptor (TFR); internalization of ITGB1 as DAB2-dependent cargo but not TFR may involve association with DAB2. Isoform 1 could be involved in brain-specific synaptic vesicle recycling. Inhibits ARHGAP31 activity toward RAC1. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11744688, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22648170}.;
