Junctophilin-3 belongs to a triprotein junctional complex implicated in the regulation of neuronal excitability and involved in the formation of junctional membrane structures between voltage-gated ion channels and endoplasmic (ryanodine) reticular receptors. A monoallelic trinucleotide repeat expansion located within the junctophilin-3 gene (JPH3) has been implicated in a rare autosomal dominant (AD) late-onset (and progressive) disorder clinically resembling Huntington disease (HD), and known as HD-like 2 (HDL2; MIM# 606438). Although the exact molecular mechanisms underlying HDL2 has not yet been fully elucidated, toxic gain-of-function of the aberrant transcript (containing the trinucleotide repeat) and loss of expression of (full-length) junctophilin-3 have both been implicated in HDL2 pathophysiology. In this study, we identified by whole exome sequencing (WES) a JPH3 homozygous truncating variant [NM_020655.4: c.17405dup; p.(Val581Argfs*137)]. in a female individual affected with genetically undetermined neurodevelopmental anomalies (including delayed motor milestones, abnormal social communication, language difficulties and borderline cognitive impairment) and paroxysmal attacks of dystonia since her early infancy. Our study expands the JPH3-associated mutational spectrum and clinical phenotypes, implicating the loss of Junctophilin-3 in heterogeneous neurodevelopmental phenotypes and early-onset paroxysmal movement disorders.
