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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.927
• PP5: Variant X-111401139-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-111401139-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 158476.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chrX-111401139-G-A is described in UniProt as null.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Aug 26, 2024	In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 10770842, 10749977, 9668176, 9618162, 11175293, 23365099, 10369164, 12692530, 12390976, 34426522, 35888005, 38045215) -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 26, 2023	For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Arg186 amino acid residue in DCX. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with DCX-related conditions (PMID: 31481326), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt DCX protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 158476). This missense change has been observed in individuals with subcortical band heterotopia (PMID: 9618162, 9668176, 10369164, 11175293). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 186 of the DCX protein (p.Arg186Cys). -
