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.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 01, 2017A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the ARX gene. The S31R variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The S31R variant is observed in 2/46,995 alleles from individuals undergoing testing at GeneDx including a hemizygous individual (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). The S31R variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 21, 2022The c.91A>C (p.S31R) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the ARX gene. This alteration results from a A to C substitution at nucleotide position 91, causing the serine (S) at amino acid position 31 to be replaced by an arginine (R). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Intellectual disability, X-linked, with or without seizures, arx-related;C3463992:Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 1 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 27, 2023This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 31 of the ARX protein (p.Ser31Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ARX-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 235754). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on ARX protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
