Genes affected
TUBA3E (HGNC:20765): (tubulin alpha 3e) Microtubules of the eukaryotic cytoskeleton perform essential and diverse functions and are composed of a heterodimer of alpha and beta tubulin. The genes encoding these microtubule constituents are part of the tubulin superfamily, which is composed of six distinct families. Genes from the alpha, beta and gamma tubulin families are found in all eukaryotes. The alpha and beta tubulins represent the major components of microtubules, while gamma tubulin plays a critical role in the nucleation of microtubule assembly. This gene encodes an alpha tubulin that highly conserved among species. A missense mutation in this gene has been potentially linked to microlissencephaly and global developmental delay.

MZT2B (HGNC:25886): (mitotic spindle organizing protein 2B) Located in cytosol; microtubule cytoskeleton; and nucleoplasm. Part of gamma-tubulin large complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: curation

The heterozygous p.Ala426Glu variant in TUBA3E was identified by our study in one individual with congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles, global developmental delay, ventricular septal defect, hypospadias, small penis, obstructive sleep apnea, hand anomalies, short neck, dorsocervical fat pad, and craniofacial dysmorphisms, via a collaborative study between the Broad Institute's Center for Mendelian Genomics and the Engle lab (https://kirbyneuro.org/EngleLab/). The p.Ala426Glu variant in TUBA3E has not been reported in individuals with neurodevelopmental disease but has been identified in 0.002% (2/113742) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs769423615). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Ala426Glu variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2_Supporting (Richards 2015). -
