Genes affected
ARX (HGNC:18060): (aristaless related homeobox) This gene is a homeobox-containing gene expressed during development. The expressed protein contains two conserved domains, a C-peptide (or aristaless domain) and the prd-like class homeobox domain. It is a member of the group-II aristaless-related protein family whose members are expressed primarily in the central and/or peripheral nervous system. This gene is thought to be involved in CNS development. Expansion of a polyalanine tract and other mutations in this gene cause X-linked cognitive disability and epilepsy.

ARX-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesOct 12, 2023The ARX c.333_335dupGGC variant is predicted to result in an in-frame duplication (p.Ala115dup). This variant was reported as a maternally-inherited variant in two unrelated male individuals with intellectual disability/developmental delay (reported as c.333_334ins(GCG) in patients #39589 and #41263, Gronskov et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15199382). However, this variant was not found in a similarly affected family member of the patient #39589 but was identified in an unaffected male control in the same study, suggested by the author that this variant is a rare polymorphism. This variant is reported in 0.078% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD and has been documented in a hemizygous individual (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/X-25031776-T-TGCC). In ClinVar, this variant has conflicting interpretations ranging from benign to uncertain (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/157755/). This variant falls within a low complexity region, therefore the allele frequency data should be interpreted with caution. Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
