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.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 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-25013585-TC-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-25013585-TC-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2921880.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu137Asnfs*31) in the ARX gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ARX are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19439424, 19738637). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate insufficient coverage at this position in the gnomAD database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ARX-related conditions. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
