Genes affected

UPF3B (HGNC:20439): (UPF3B regulator of nonsense mediated mRNA decay) This gene encodes a protein that is part of a post-splicing multiprotein complex involved in both mRNA nuclear export and mRNA surveillance. The encoded protein is one of two functional homologs to yeast Upf3p. mRNA surveillance detects exported mRNAs with truncated open reading frames and initiates nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). When translation ends upstream from the last exon-exon junction, this triggers NMD to degrade mRNAs containing premature stop codons. This protein binds to the mRNA and remains bound after nuclear export, acting as a nucleocytoplasmic shuttling protein. It forms with Y14 a complex that binds specifically 20 nt upstream of exon-exon junctions. This gene is located on the long arm of chromosome X. Two splice variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant X-119841184-CCT-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-119841184-CCT-C is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 420043.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

This 2 year old male with global developmental delays, autism spectrum disorder, large stature, and macrocephaly was found to carry a maternally inherited frameshift variant in the UPF3B gene. The patient also has dolicocephaly, wide nasal bridge, epicanthal folds, full lips, and a wide mouth. The patient's mother is unaffected. The patient's maternal great-uncle was found to harbor the same variant; he has an intellectual disability and reported macrocephaly. The c.697_698delAG variant in the UPF3B gene has been reported previously in two brothers, both with developmental delay and renal dysplasia, and one also with macrocephaly (Lynch et al., 2012). The c.697_698delAG variant causes a frameshift and is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The variant is absent from population databases. -
