Genes affected
DCX (HGNC:2714): (doublecortin) This gene encodes a member of the doublecortin family. The protein encoded by this gene is a cytoplasmic protein and contains two doublecortin domains, which bind microtubules. In the developing cortex, cortical neurons must migrate over long distances to reach the site of their final differentiation. The encoded protein appears to direct neuronal migration by regulating the organization and stability of microtubules. In addition, the encoded protein interacts with LIS1, the regulatory gamma subunit of platelet activating factor acetylhydrolase, and this interaction is important to proper microtubule function in the developing cortex. Mutations in this gene cause abnormal migration of neurons during development and disrupt the layering of the cortex, leading to epilepsy, cognitive disability, subcortical band heterotopia ("double cortex" syndrome) in females and lissencephaly ("smooth brain" syndrome) in males. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010]

This variant disrupts the p.Arg196 amino acid residue in DCX. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with DCX-related conditions (PMID: 18685874), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. This sequence change replaces arginine with histidine at codon 196 of the DCX protein (p.Arg196His). The arginine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between arginine and histidine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been observed in individuals with lissencephaly (PMID: 11468322, 18685874). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 11609). -

The c.587G>A (p.R196H) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 2) of the DCX gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 587, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 196 to be replaced by a histidine (H). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This alteration was detected in multiple individuals with DCX-related lissencephaly (Matsumoto, 2001; Demelas, 2001; Leger, 2008; Bahi-Buisson, 2013; Lin, 2022). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This missense alteration is located in a region that has a low rate of benign missense variation (Lek, 2016; Firth, 2009). Functional assays show impaired microtubule growth in a human cell line compared to controls (Lin, 2022). This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
