摘要

目的:Williams-Beuren综合征(WBS)是一种众所周知的神经发育障碍,由7q11.23位点的拷贝数丢失引起。尽管1.5-1.8 Mb复发性缺失携带了几个相关基因,但尚未发现致病变异引起神经发育表型的单一基因。基于对非典型7q.11.23缺失病例的临床观察和对人类和小鼠的功能研究,编码通用转录因子i - i - i的GTF2I被认为是WBS认知和行为表型的主要候选基因。方法:通过多中心合作使用GeneMatcher和ERN-ITHACA网络识别神经发育障碍个体。他们在基因组/外显子组测序后仍未确诊。在每个参与中心进行临床评估。结果:我们鉴定出7个无亲缘关系的GTF2I从头变异个体(2个无义、2个剪接位点、1个错义、1个缺失和1个基因内缺失)。我们还通过RNA测序鉴定了一个具有WBS表型和低GTF2I表达的个体。所有8例患者均表现出全面发育迟缓和面部畸形特征,7例患者表现出语言迟缓和/或自闭症特征。RNA测序证实了这两个剪接位点变异的影响。结论:致病性杂合GTF2I变异体导致一种神经发育障碍,其特征是整体发育迟缓,面部畸形,部分类似于WBS患者的表型。

Heterozygous alterations of GTF2I at the Williams-Beuren syndrome's locus cause a neurodevelopmental disorder.

Purpose: Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) is a well-known neurodevelopmental disorder caused by a copy-number loss at the 7q11.23 locus. Although the 1.5-1.8 Mb recurrent deletion carries several genes of interest, no single gene has been identified in which pathogenic variants cause a neurodevelopmental phenotype. At this locus, GTF2I, encoding the general transcription factor II-I, has been considered as the main candidate gene for the cognitive and behavioural phenotype of WBS, based on clinical observations of cases with atypical 7q.11.23 deletions and functional studies in humans and mice.

Methods: Individuals with a neurodevelopmental disorder were identified through a multicentre collaboration using GeneMatcher and the ERN-ITHACA network. They remained undiagnosed following genome/exome sequencing. Clinical evaluations were performed in each participating centre.

Results: We identified seven unrelated individuals with de novo variants in GTF2I (two non-sense, two splice-site, one missense, one indel and one intragenic deletion). We also identified one individual with a WBS phenotype and low GTF2I expression identified by RNA sequencing. All eight individuals presented with global developmental delay and facial dysmorphic features, with speech delay and/or autistic features in seven cases. The effect of the two splice-site variants was confirmed by RNA sequencing.

Conclusion: Pathogenic heterozygous GTF2I variants cause a neurodevelopmental disorder characterised by global developmental delay with facial dysmorphic features, partly resembling the phenotype observed in individuals affected with WBS.
