PRRT2

proline rich transmembrane protein 2, the group of interferon induced transmembrane protein domain containing

Gene summary

This gene encodes a transmembrane protein containing a proline-rich domain in its N-terminal half. Studies in mice suggest that it is predominantly expressed in brain and spinal cord in embryonic and postnatal stages. Mutations in this gene are associated with episodic kinesigenic dyskinesia-1. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]

PRRT2 encompasses a variety of phenotypes including benign familial infantile seizures (BFIE) and paroxysmal kinesigenic choreoathetosis (PKC). BFIE commonly present between 3 and 12 months of age, carry good response to medication, with seizures remitting by 18 months. PKC is characterized by recurrent and/or brief attacks of involuntary movement characterized by chorea, athetosis and/or other dystonic features, triggered by voluntary movement, with typical onset in childhood through adolescence and gradual reduction in severity and frequency with age. These features (BFIE and PKC) have been documented to occur in the same individuals; the presence of both of these phenotypes is identified as infantile convulsions and paroxysmal choreoathetosis (ICCA). Loss of function variants have been primarily reported in association with this gene and phenotypes, (most notably the recurrent p.Arg217Profs*8 (c.649dupC) variant) and segregate with disease in several different families in the literature (selected publications- PMID:22101681, 22243967, 22870186, 29215089). Evidence supporting this gene disease pair includes case level and experimental data. Supporting experimental evidence has been reported in mice and rat studies (selected publications- PMID:22101681, 22243967, 27172900). This association between gene and disease has been maintained over time. Of note, instances of individuals have been reported with these phenotypes together and in isolation. Given the age dependent nature of these presentations, it is possible that the manifestations of these features may be separated by many years; initial reporting of individuals with only one of the phenotypes may be a result of age at time of report. In summary, PRRT2 is definitively associated with autosomal dominant infantile convulsions and paroxysmal choreoathetosis (ICCA). This has been demonstrated in both research and clinical settings.

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_145239.3. 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: As a component of the outer core of AMPAR complex, may be involved in synaptic transmission in the central nervous system. In hippocampal neurons, in presynaptic terminals, plays an important role in the final steps of neurotransmitter release, possibly by regulating Ca(2+)-sensing. In the cerebellum, may inhibit SNARE complex formation and downregulate short-term facilitation. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:E9PUL5}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Episodic kinesigenic dyskinesia 1 (EKD1) [MIM:128200]: An autosomal dominant neurologic condition characterized by recurrent and brief attacks of abnormal involuntary movements, triggered by sudden voluntary movement. These attacks usually have onset during childhood or early adulthood and can involve dystonic postures, chorea, or athetosis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22101681, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22120146, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22131361, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22209761, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25915028, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27172900}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Disease- causing mutations that produce truncation of the C-terminus of the protein alter subcellular location, from plasma membrane to cytoplasm (PubMed:22101681). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22101681}.; DISEASE: Convulsions, familial infantile, with paroxysmal choreoathetosis (ICCA) [MIM:602066]: A syndrome characterized by clinical features of benign familial infantile seizures and episodic kinesigenic dyskinesia. Benign familial infantile seizures is a disorder characterized by afebrile seizures occurring during the first year of life, without neurologic sequelae. Paroxysmal choreoathetosis is a disorder of involuntary movements characterized by attacks that occur spontaneously or are induced by a variety of stimuli. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22243967, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22832103}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Seizures, benign familial infantile, 2 (BFIS2) [MIM:605751]: A form of benign familial infantile epilepsy, a neurologic disorder characterized by afebrile seizures occurring in clusters during the first year of life, without neurologic sequelae. BFIS2 inheritance is autosomal dominant. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22243967, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22399141, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22623405}.
