Biallelic PDE2A variants: a new cause of syndromic paroxysmal dyskinesia.

ABSTRACT: Cause of complex dyskinesia remains elusive in some patients. A homozygous missense variant leading to drastic decrease of PDE2A enzymatic activity was reported in one patient with childhood-onset choreodystonia preceded by paroxysmal dyskinesia and associated with cognitive impairment and interictal EEG abnormalities. Here, we report three new cases with biallelic PDE2A variants identified by trio whole-exome sequencing. Mitochondria network was analyzed after Mitotracker™ Red staining in control and mutated primary fibroblasts. Analysis of retrospective video of patients' movement disorder and refinement of phenotype was carried out. We identified a homozygous gain of stop codon variant c.1180C>T; p.(Gln394*) in PDE2A in siblings and compound heterozygous variants in young adult: a misse
