De novo mutations of the ATP6V1A gene cause developmental encephalopathy with epilepsy

Abstract: Using whole exome sequencing, Fassio et al. identify de novo mutations in ATP6V1A, encoding the A subunit of v-ATPase, in four patients with developmental encephalopathies and epilepsy. Functional and expression studies demonstrate impaired lysosomal homeostasis, defective neurite elongation and loss of excitatory inputs in cultured neurons.

“…v-ATPase is a component of the mTOR pathway and functions as a lysosome-associated machinery for amino acid sensing 49,50 . A 15 potential role of ATP6V1A in neuronal development was suggested by studying de novo mutations in this gene 51 . Yet, there are no prior studies linking changes in APT6V1A expression with LOAD pathogenesis.…”

“…Four cases with ATP6V1A mutations have been reported so far, all of them had preexisting developmental delay and fever-associated seizures, followed by epileptic encephalopathy. 1 Index child was developmentally normal, there were no episodes of fever-associated seizures. He presented with infantile spasms (IS) and neuroregression followed by refractory seizures.…”
