Chirag Patel gene: ZIC1 was added gene: ZIC1 was added to Intellectual disability syndromic and non-syndromic. Sources: Expert list Mode of inheritance for gene: ZIC1 was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted Publications for gene: ZIC1 were set to PMID: 26340333, 30391508 Phenotypes for gene: ZIC1 were set to Structural brain anomalies with impaired intellectual development and craniosynostosis; OMIM #618736 Review for gene: ZIC1 was set to GREEN Added comment: 5 families with heterozygous mutations located in the final (third) exon of ZIC1 who have a distinct phenotype in which severe craniosynostosis, specifically involving the coronal sutures, and variable learning disability are the most characteristic features. The location of the nonsense mutations predicts escape of mutant ZIC1 transcripts from nonsense-mediated decay, which was confirmed in a cell line from an affected individual. Both nonsense and missense mutations are associated with altered and/or enhanced expression of a target gene, engrailed-2, in a Xenopus embryo assay. Analysis of mouse embryos revealed a localized domain of Zic1 expression at embryonic days 11.5-12.5 in a region overlapping the supraorbital regulatory center, which patterns the coronal suture. 2 sibs with BAIDCS, Vandervore et al. (2018) identified heterozygosity for a frameshift mutation in the ZIC1 gene. Neither parent had evidence of the mutation by whole-exome sequencing, suggesting that gonadal mosaicism for the mutation was present in one of the parents. Expression of the mutated allele was detected in patient fibroblasts by RT-PCR, evidence that the mutant mRNA did not undergo nonsense-mediated decay and probably generates an abnormal protein. Also heterozygous deletions of ZIC1 on chromosome 3q25.1 are associated with Dandy-Walker malformation of the cerebellum. Loss of the orthologous Zic1 gene in the mouse causes cerebellar hypoplasia and vertebral defects. Sources: Expert list |
