OBJECTIVE: To characterize the clinical phenotypes and identify the genetic etiology in four unrelated families affected by Turner-type X-linked intellectual disability (XLID).
METHODS: Peripheral blood samples were collected from four probands and their parents. Genomic DNA was extracted, and a comprehensive genetic analysis was performed using trio-based Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) combined with low-pass Copy Number Variation sequencing (CNV-seq). Candidate variants were subsequently validated via Sanger sequencing.
RESULTS: Genetic analysis identified distinct variants in the HUWE1 across the four families. Specifically, four distinct HUWE1 variants were identified across the families: a hemizygous c.10034 > T (p.Lys3345Met) in Family 1; a heterozygous c.9209G > A (p.Arg3070His) in Family 2; a heterozygous c.12688T > C (p.Phe4230Leu) in Family 3; and a hemizygous c.9070G > A (p.Ala3024Thr) in Family 4. In accordance with ACMG guidelines, the novel variants in Families 1, 3, and 4 were classified as "Likely Pathogenic" (PS2 + PM2_Supporting + PP2 + PP3). In contrast, the previously reported variant in Family 2 was categorized as "Pathogenic" based on the criteria PS2 + PM2_Supporting + PM5 + PP2 + PP3_Moderate. All probands were clinically diagnosed with Turner-type XLID.
CONCLUSIONS: This study expands the pathogenic variant spectrum of HUWE1 and provides novel molecular evidence for the clinical diagnosis of Turner-type XLID. These findings are of significant value for genetic counseling, carrier screening, and prenatal diagnosis for the affected families.
