Genes affected
ARHGEF9 (HGNC:14561): (Cdc42 guanine nucleotide exchange factor 9) The protein encoded by this gene is a Rho-like GTPase that switches between the active (GTP-bound) state and inactive (GDP-bound) state to regulate CDC42 and other genes. This brain-specific protein also acts as an adaptor protein for the recruitment of gephyrin and together these proteins facilitate receceptor recruitement in GABAnergic and glycinergic synapses. Defects in this gene are the cause of startle disease with epilepsy (STHEE), also known as hyperekplexia with epilepsy, as well as several other types of cognitive disability. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

Variant summary: ARHGEF9 c.1450G>A (p.Asp484Asn) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.7e-05 in 171655 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1450G>A has been reported in the literature as a VUS in a male proband affected with West syndrome (Mitta_2020). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Early Infantile Epileptic Encephalopathy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32593896). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 383721). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

The c.1450G>A (p.D484N) alteration is located in coding exon 10 of the ARHGEF9 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1450, causing the aspartic acid (D) at amino acid position 484 to be replaced by an asparagine (N). This alteration is rare in population databases:_x000D_ _x000D_ Based on data from the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), the ARHGEF9 c.1450G>A alteration was observed in 4 among 188,266 total alleles studied (0.002%), having been observed in 3 total hemizygotes and 3/84,024 (0.004%) European (Non-Finnish) alleles. Based on data from the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), this alteration was not observed among 6,503 total alleles studied. Allele frequency data for this nucleotide position are not currently available from the 1000 Genomes Project. Rare missense alleles commonly exhibit a deleterious effect on protein function (Kryukov, 2007; Tennessen, 2012; please note that some variants may appear to be rare due to ethnic underrepresentation in the database). The altered amino acid is conserved throughout evolution:_x000D_ _x000D_ The p.D484 amino acid is conserved through available reptile species. The alteration is predicted benign by in silico models:_x000D_ _x000D_ The p.D484N alteration is predicted to be benign by Polyphen and tolerated by SIFT in silico analyses. Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
