Clinical Validity Scoring Notes and points

CHD1 encodes a chromatin remodeling protein.

 

  • c.966G>A p.W322* - absent gnomAD v4. NMD+ (exon 18/36). Unknown if de novo.

    • PMID: 38174187

      • Patient also has NM_018489.3(ASH1L):c.1723T>G (p.Ser575Ala), but this is VUS/LB in ClinVar.

      • Phenotype consistent with PBS: 36 weeker, respiratory distress, central hypotonia. Intierstitial markings in lung. Severe hypotonia, poor feeding. Essentially normal brain MRI. There is oly a partial phenotype overlap with other cases (hypotonia). 1 point (generous)

  • c.184_187delTCAG p.(Glu63Leufs*185) - Absent gnomAD, NMD+. NO POINTS

    • PMID: 38113761

      • In table S4. In patient R25912. Found to have abnormal expression in RNA. But no phenotype information provided. No evidence.

  • PMID: 28866611 (PILAROWSKY PAPER) multiple variants:

    • c.1853G>A; p.Arg618Gln - DE NOVO absent gnomAD v4. Patient phenotype: DD, speech apraxia, autism, sterotypies, hypotonia, macrocephaly, immune abnormalities, depressed midface, translucent skin, allergic shiners, absence seizures, almond shaped eyes, flaring of eyebrows, downslanting-palpebral fissures, periorbital fullness, fetal finger/toepads. 1 point.

    • c.5123G>A; p.Arg1708Gln (unknown if inherited or de novo) - 6 alleles gnomAD v4, VUS in ClinVar. Found in both subject 2 and 3.

    • c.1379G>A; p.Arg460Lys - de novo. 1 allele in gnomAD. Patient with DD, hypotonia, seizures and periorbital fullness. 1 point.

    • c.421A>G, p.Arg141Gly - absent gnomAd. Inheritance unknown, in a patient with DD, speech apraxia,. , hypotonia. 0.5 points.

    • A patient with a deletion of RGMB gene and most of CHD1 had been reported, but the child didn’t have neurodevelopmental abnormalities. The authors therefore suggest the mechanism is dominant negative.

  • c.5113T>C p.W1705R - absent gnomAD

    • PMID: 36625521 - de novo in patient 7 with Hypertelorism, low set ears, mild intellectual disability, developmental delay, dyskinesia, delayed speech, seizures, and congenital heart defect. Patient lymphocytes: qPCR showed mRNA expression was higher than that in controls and Western blotting showed protein expression was lower than controls. Methylation levels were higher. 294T cells: Protein expression was lower and methylation levels were higher (fig 3). 1.5 points.

  • c.4550dupT p.(Leu1517Phefs*7) - NMD+ absent gnomAD.

    • Several papers in HGMD - all from autism / neurodev cohorts. None of these are likely to have a specific phenotype associated.

PMID: 28726809 - reports a recessive case with two missense variants, not consistent with inheritance. Phenotype - Microcephaly,vision impairment,absentcorpus callosum,epilepsy
