SLC6A1 G443D associated with developmental delay and epilepsy.

ABSTRACT: SLC6A1 is associated with an autosomal dominant early-onset seizure and epileptic encephalopathy associated with intellectual disability. We present a 2-yr-old girl with developmental delay and epilepsy, using a new computational filtering impact score to show the patient's variant ranks with other pathogenic variants. Genomic studies within the patient revealed a G443D variant of uncertain significance. Structural and evolutionary assessments establish this variant as a loss of function to the protein. Compiled metrics through our custom tools on sequence, structure, and protein dynamics combined with PolyPhen-2, PROVEAN, SIFT, and Align-GVGD reveal this variant to rank in the top functional outcome changes relative to gnomAD, TOPMed, and ClinVar variants known to date. The patient was re
