SPTBN1 encodes βII-spectrin, the ubiquitously expressed β-spectrin that forms micrometer-scale networks associated with plasma membranes. Mice deficient in neuronal βII-spectrin have defects in cortical organization, developmental delay and behavioral deficiencies. These phenotypes, while less severe, are observed in haploinsufficient animals, suggesting that individuals carrying heterozygous SPTBN1 variants may also show measurable compromise of neural development and function. Here we identify heterozygous SPTBN1 variants in 29 individuals with developmental, language and motor delays; mild to severe intellectual disability; autistic features; seizures; behavioral and movement abnormalities; hypotonia; and variable dysmorphic facial features. We show that these SPTBN1 variants lead to effects that affect βII-spectrin stability, disrupt binding to key molecular partners, and disturb cytoskeleton organization and dynamics. Our studies define SPTBN1 variants as the genetic basis of a neurodevelopmental syndrome, expand the set of spectrinopathies affecting the brain and underscore the critical role of βII-spectrin in the central nervous system.

致病性 SPTBN1 变异导致常染色体显性神经发育综合征



SPTBN1编码 βII-血影蛋白,这种普遍表达的 β-血影蛋白形成与质膜相关的微米级网络。神经元βII-血影蛋白缺陷的小鼠存在皮质组织缺陷、发育迟缓和行为缺陷。这些表型虽然不太严重,但在单倍体不足的动物中观察到,这表明携带杂合SPTBN1变异的个体也可能表现出神经发育和功能的可测量的损害。在这里,我们在 29 名患有发育、语言和运动迟缓的个体中发现了杂合SPTBN1变异;轻度至重度智力障碍;自闭症特征;癫痫发作;行为和运动异常;肌张力减退;以及多变的畸形面部特征。我们发现这些SPTBN1变异会导致影响 βII 血影蛋白稳定性、破坏与关键分子伙伴的结合以及扰乱细胞骨架组织和动力学的影响。我们的研究将SPTBN1变异定义为神经发育综合征的遗传基础,扩大了影响大脑的血影蛋白病的范围,并强调了 βII-血影蛋白在中枢神经系统中的关键作用。
