Project description:Identifying causes of sporadic intellectual disability remains a considerable medical challenge. Here, we demonstrate that null mutations in the NONO gene, a member of the Drosophila Behavior Human Splicing (DBHS) protein family, are a novel cause of X-linked syndromic intellectual disability. Comparing humans to Nono-deficient mice revealed related behavioral and craniofacial anomalies, as well as global transcriptional dysregulation. Nono-deficient mice also showed deregulation of a large number of synaptic transcripts, causing a disorganization of inhibitory synapses, with impaired postsynaptic scaffolding of gephyrin. Alteration of gephyrin clustering could be rescued by over-expression of Gabra2 in NONO-compromised neurons. These findings link NONO to intellectual disability and first highlight the key role of DBHS proteins in functional organization of GABAergic synapses.

Project description:Intellectual disability is a common condition that carries lifelong severe medical and developmental consequences. The causes of intellectual disability (ID) remain unknown for the majority of patients due to the extensive clinical and genetic heterogeneity of this disorder. De novo mutations may play an important role in ID as most individuals with ID present as isolated cases without family history and/or clear syndromic indication. In addition, the involvement of such mutations have recently been demonstrated in a small number of individuals with ID. Here we evaluate the diagnostic potential and role of de novo mutations in a cohort of 100 patients with ID of unknown cause using family-based exome sequencing. Single end short-read (50 bp) SOLiD 4 sequencing data for 300 individuals, constituting 100 patient-parent trios. For more details please read; http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1206524.

Project description:Intellectual disability (ID) is a clinically important disease and a most prevalent neurodevelopmental disorder. The etiology and pathogenesis of ID are poorly recognized. Exome sequencing revealed a homozygous missense mutation in the POLR3B gene in a consanguineous family with three Intellectual disability with craniofacal anomalies patients. POLR3B gene encoding the second largest subunit of RNA polymerase III. To explore how genetic variants alter cell expression in ID patients, RNA sequencing on blood samples was performed and to obtain insights into the biological pathways influenced by POLR3B mutation, we applied our RNA-Seq data to several gene ontology programs such as ToppGene, Enrichr, KEGG. We detected a significant decrease expression of several spliceosomal RNAs, ribosomal proteins and transcription factors in our ID patients. We hypothesize that POLR3B mutation dysregulates the expression of some important transcription factors, ribosomal and spliceosomal genes and impairments in protein synthesis and splicing mediated in part by transcription factors such as FOXC2, GATA1, .. contribute to impaired neuronal function and concurrence of intellectual disability and craniofacial anomalies in our patients. Our study highlights the emerging role of spliceosome and ribosomal proteins in intellectual disability.

Project description:An increasing number of genes involved in chromatin structure and epigenetic regulation has been implicated in a variety of developmental disorders, often including intellectual disability. By trio exome sequencing and subsequent mutational screening we now identified two de novo frameshift mutations and one de novo missense mutation in the CTCF gene in individuals with intellectual disability, microcephaly and growth retardation. Furthermore, a patient with a larger deletion including CTCF was identified. CTCF (CCCTC-binding factor) is one of the most important chromatin organizers in vertebrates and is involved in various chromatin regulation processes such as higher order of chromatin organization, enhancer function, and maintenance of three-dimensional chromatin structure. Transcriptome analyses in all three patients with point mutations revealed deregulation of genes involved in signal transduction and emphasized the role of CTCF in enhancer-driven expression of genes. Our findings indicate that haploinsufficiency of CTCF affects genomic interaction of enhancers and their regulated gene promoters that drive developmental processes and cognition. Comparison of lymphocyte gene expression between 3 de novo CTCF mutation patients and 8 controls (4 technical replicates each, no biological replicates).

Project description:Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) functions to degrade transcripts bearing premature stop codon (PTC) and is a crucial regulator of gene expression. NMD and the UPF3B gene have been implicated as the cause of various forms of intellectual disability (ID) and other neurological symptoms. Here, we reports three patients with global developmental delay carrying hemizygous deletions of the UPF2 gene, another important member of the NMD pathway and direct interacting partner of UPF3B.
