Review for gene: PRMT9 was set to RED
Added comment: A homozygous variant (G189R) in PRMT9 is reported based on large WGS study in 136 consanguineous families - unclear if only found in 1 family and no clinical information on case(s).

PMRTs (protein arginine methyltransferases) catalyse post translational modification via arginine methylation. Functional studies showed that the G189R variant abolishes PRMT9's methyltransferase activity - specifically at the R508 residue of SF3B2 RNA (exclusively methylated by PRMT9) - and leads to heavy PRMT9 ubiquitination, and abnormal splicing activity of SF3B2. Knock out mouse model showed PRMT9 loss in excitatory neurons leads to aberrant synapse development and impaired learning and memory.

Mendeliome v0.8667 SF3B2 Zornitza Stark gene: SF3B2 was added
gene: SF3B2 was added to Mendeliome. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: SF3B2 was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted
Publications for gene: SF3B2 were set to 34344887
Phenotypes for gene: SF3B2 were set to Craniofacial microsomia
Review for gene: SF3B2 was set to GREEN
Added comment: Twenty individuals from seven families reported with de novo or transmitted haploinsufficient variants in SF3B2. Affected individuals had mandibular hypoplasia, microtia, facial and preauricular tags, epibulbar dermoids, lateral oral clefts in addition to skeletal and cardiac abnormalities.

Targeted morpholino knockdown of SF3B2 in Xenopus resulted in disruption of cranial neural crest precursor formation and subsequent craniofacial cartilage defects, supporting a link between spliceosome mutations and impaired neural crest development in congenital craniofacial disease.

The families were ascertained from a cohort and the authors suggest that haploinsufficient variants in SF3B2 are the most prevalent genetic cause of CFM, explaining ~3% of sporadic and ~25% of familial cases.
