Pathogenic de novo variants in PPP2R5C cause a neurodevelopmental disorder within the Houge-Janssens syndrome spectrum.

ABSTRACT: Pathogenic variants resulting in protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) dysfunction result in mild to severe neurodevelopmental delay. PP2A is a trimer of a catalytic (C) subunit, scaffolding (A) subunit, and substrate binding/regulatory (B) subunit, encoded by 19 different genes. De novo missense variants in PPP2R5D (B56δ) or PPP2R1A (Aα) and de novo missense and loss-of-function variants in PPP2CA (Cα) lead to syndromes with overlapping phenotypic features, known as Houge-Janssens syndrome (HJS) types 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Here, we describe an additional condition in the HJS spectrum in 26 individuals with variants in PPP2R5C, encoding the regulatory B56γ subunit. Most changes were de novo and of the missense type. The clinical features were well within the HJS spectrum with strongest resemb
