Description
In 7 unrelated patients with childhood-onset neurodegeneration with brain atrophy (CONDBA; 617672), Edvardson et al. (2017) identified a recurrent de novo heterozygous c.628G-A transition (c.628G-A, NM_014233.3) in the UBTF gene, resulting in a glu210-to-lys (E210K) substitution at a conserved residue in the second HMG-box homology domain. This residue is followed by 2 lysine residues; thus the mutation would result in a string of 3 lysine residues, conferring a highly positively charged region. The mutation, which was found by whole-exome sequencing and confirmed by Sanger sequencing, was not found in the gnomAD database. Studies of fibroblasts derived from 1 patient showed that the mutation resulted in a gain of function and increased expression of ribosomal subunit 18S.
Toro et al. (2018) identified a recurrent de novo heterozygous E210K mutation in the UBTF gene in 4 unrelated patients with CONDBA. The mutations were found by whole-exome sequencing and confirmed by Sanger sequencing. Studies of patient fibroblasts showed that the mutant protein was expressed normally and showed normal nucleolar localization. However, patient cells had increased expression of pre-rRNA and 18S rRNA compared to controls, suggesting a gain of function. There were also abnormalities in the expression of putative UBTF2 targets. Patient fibroblasts showed increased DNA double-strand breaks, failure of progression to the G2 phase of the cell cycle, and a tendency towards apoptotic cell death. There was a trend for UBTF E210K fibroblasts to harbor fewer nucleoli per nucleus compared to controls, but there was no significant effect of the mutation on nucleolar area.

Description
The heterozygous p.Glu210Lys variant in UBTF was identified by our study in 2 unrelated individuals with childhood-onset motor and cognitive regression syndrome with extrapyramidal movement disorder. Trio exome or genome analysis showed this variant to be de novo. This variant was found to be de novo in an additional individual with confirmed paternity and maternity and neurodegeneration in childhood (PMID: 30517966). This variant is assumed de novo in at least 11 additional individuals, 10 with neurodegeneration in childhood and 1 with either intellectual disability or developmental delay, but maternity and paternity have not been confirmed (PMID: 28191890, 29300972, 28777933). This variant was absent from large population studies. Additionally, this variant has also been reported as pathogenic and likely pathogenic by multiple submitters in ClinVar (Variation ID: 437909). Animal models in drosophilia and mice have shown that this variant may cause childhood-onset motor and cognitive regression syndrome with extrapyramidal movement disorder (PMID: 29300972). Furthermore, in vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Glu210Lys variant may impact protein function (PMID: 28777933, 29300972). However, these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for childhood-onset motor and cognitive regression syndrome with extrapyramidal movement disorder in an autosomal dominant manner based on multiple de novo reports in affected individuals and functional studies. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM6_Strong, PS2, PM2, PS3_Moderate, PS4_moderate (Richards 2015).

Description
The UBTF c.628G>A (p.Glu210Lys) variant is a missense variant that has been reported in 14 unrelated individuals with childhood-onset neurodegeneration (Edvardson et al. 2017; Toro et al. 2018; SedláÄková et al. 2019; Ikeda et al. 2020; Bastos et al. 2020). In all cases, the variant occurred de novo. The p.Glu210Lys variant is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database in a region of good sequencing coverage, indicating it is rare. Studies of patient fibroblasts have suggested a gain-of-function effect of the variant, demonstrating increased expression of pre-rRNA and 18S rRNA, altered expression levels of downstream gene targets, increased double-strand DNA breaks, disrupted cell cycle progression and increased apoptosis, and at least a trend toward fewer nucleoli (Edvardson et al. 2017, Toro et al. 2018). Expression of the variant in Drosophila also resulted in embryonic lethality (Toro et al. 2018). Based on the collective evidence, the p.Glu210Lys variant is classified as pathogenic for childhood-onset neurodegeneration with brain atrophy.

Description
The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Missense changes are a common disease-causing mechanism. In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.68). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000437909). The variant has been previously reported as de novo in a similarly affected individual (PMID: 28777933). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.
