Genes affected

GABBR2 (HGNC:4507): (gamma-aminobutyric acid type B receptor subunit 2) The multi-pass membrane protein encoded by this gene belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 3 family and GABA-B receptor subfamily. The GABA-B receptors inhibit neuronal activity through G protein-coupled second-messenger systems, which regulate the release of neurotransmitters, and the activity of ion channels and adenylyl cyclase. This receptor subunit forms an active heterodimeric complex with GABA-B receptor subunit 1, neither of which is effective on its own. Allelic variants of this gene have been associated with nicotine dependence.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

We identified a recurring de novo variant in GABAB receptor R2 (GABBR2) that reduces the receptor function, whereas different GABBR2 variants in EE patients possess a more profound effect in reducing receptor activity and are more responsive to agonist rescue in an animal model. GABBR2 is a genetic factor that determines RTT- or EE-like phenotype expression depending on the variant positions. GABBR2-mediated γ-aminobutyric acid signaling is a crucial factor in determining the severity and nature of neurodevelopmental phenotypes. -

The GABBR2 c.1699G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala567Thr. This variant has been reported as a recurrent de novo variant in individuals with Rett-syndrome like phenotypes and non-specified neurodevelopmental disorders (Lopes et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26740508; Lucariello et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27541642; Kosmicki et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28191890; Takata A et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29346770; McRae et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28135719; Yoo et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28856709 ). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 567 of the GABBR2 protein (p.Ala567Thr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with GABBR2-related conditions (PMID: 26740508, 27541642, 28856709). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 446211). 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 not expected to disrupt GABBR2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GABBR2 function (PMID: 28856709). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

This variant has been previously reported as a de novo heterozygous change in multiple unrelated patients with autism spectrum disorder, motor and language developmental delay, developmental regression, stereotypies, sleep disturbance, and muscular hypotonia with or without epileptic encephalopathy (PMID: 26740508, 27541642, 28191890, 28856709, 28867141, 29346770). A different amino acid change at the same residue (p.Ala567Val) has been observed in individuals with similar clinical phenotype and in at least one of these individuals, this variant was detected to be de novo (Variation ID: 1073462, Invitae internal data). The GABBR2 gene is constrained against variation (Z-score= 4.63 and pLI = 1) and missense variants are a common mechanism of disease (HGMD, ClinVar database). Experimental studies showed that presence of the p.Ala567Thr variant resulted in abnormal protein activity in HEK293 cells without altering protein expression and subcellular localization; furthermore, this variant caused abnormal behaviors in tadpoles (PMID: 28856709). The c.1699G>A (p.Ala567Thr) variant is absent from the gnomAD population database and thus is presumed to be rare. Analysis of the parental samples was negative for the variant, indicating this variant likely occurred as a de novo event. Based on the available evidence, the c.1699G>A (p.Ala567Thr) variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
