ITPR1-associated spinocerebellar ataxia with craniofacial features-additional evidence for germline mosaicism.

ABSTRACT: Inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor type 1 (ITPR1) is an endoplasmic reticulum-bound intracellular inositol triphosphate receptor involved in the regulation of intracellular calcium. Pathogenic variants in ITPR1 are associated with spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) types 15/16 and 29 and have recently been implicated in a facial microsomia syndrome. In this report, we present a family with three affected individuals found to have a heterozygous missense c.800C > T (predicted p.Thr267Met) who present clinically with a SCA29-like syndrome. All three individuals presented with varying degrees of ataxia, developmental delay, and apparent intellectual disability, as well as craniofacial involvement-an uncommon finding in patients with SCA29. The variant was identified using clinical e
