Added comment: Three unrelated individuals with common neurological features of developmental delay, progressive motor impairment, progressive lower extremity spasticity, and epileptiform activity or seizures. Other additional features varied.

Two of the individuals had the same de-novo missense, Thr51Ile, while the third was homozygous for a late truncating variant, Gln58AlafsTer10. The patient with the hom variant was described as less severe.

Functional studies in fibroblasts showed dysregulation of the sphingolipid (SL) synthesis pathway, showing that both variants impair ORMDL regulation of the pathway leading to various levels of increased SL. Over expression of human SPTSSA was shown to lead to motor development in flies, rescued by expression of ORMDL for WT SPTSSA but not mutant SPTSSA.

The de-novo missense were shown to impact regulation more than the hom truncation, while the truncated region was shown to previously to be important for ORMDL regulation.

Mice with a hom KO of the functional equivalent sptssb had early onset ataxia and died prematurely, with evidence of axonic degeneration.
