Gene Inspector Pro And The Variants That I Found In Connection To My Atypical Neurological Processing


This is a blog post about Gene Inspector Pro and the variants that I found in connection to my atypical neurological processing.


 Sergey Andryukhin's Gene Inspector Pro's information

"This tool allows you to explore various aspects of your genetic profile by clicking on panels representing different metabolic pathways and genetic disorders.

Each panel provides a list of genes and their mutations, offering technical information that may be most useful to doctors and geneticists.

Please note that this tool does not offer personalized health advice. If you have concerns about your genetic profile or health, consult with a qualified healthcare provider."

"It finds compromised genes.  Its automatic scan leads to discovery of variants with highest probability of impact. It checks metabolic pathways.  They include Vitamins, minerals, methylation, autophagy, Energy, Krebs cycle and many more. Genetic variants are sorted, grouped and annotated so that you can see which area in the gene they impact."

I like that I type in the gene, and Gene Inspector Pro lists all the variants that I have in gene and the consequences and rsID. The rare variants are easily identified, and that includes the novel variants.  I like that Gene Inspector shows the allelic depth, genotype quality, and mapping quality of each variant. Sequencing's Genome Explorer doesn't do that.  

I find Gene Inspector Pro an excellent, helpful tool to use to deeply explore my genome.  I've been using it out of my strong interest in genomics (especially Developmental Neurogenomics) from a medical perspective. I have also been using it out of my strong interest in genomics from an evolutionary perspective.

Thanks to Gene Inspector Pro, I found some very interesting variants that could factor in my atypical neurological processing. 

I found two ultra rare variants in coding regions that Varsome site show as having overall In-Silico predictor scores that show potential to be disease causing. They have Combined Annotation Dependent Depletion scores (CADD) scores of more than 20 (top 1% of the most deleterious). 


One is a Stop Gained (aka Nonsense) variant in NUAK1, and there are no databases that have any people reported to have the variant. Therefore, it's a novel variant.  My mother doesn't have the variant.  My father died back in 1993, and so I don't know if I inherited the variant from him.  I don't know if it's a de novo mutation. Rare de novo variants of NUAK1 have been associated with Autism, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and cognitive impairment. Simons Foundation Autism Research Initiative (SFARI) Gene Database has NUAK1 as being a strong candidate gene for Autism. 

The other is a Missense/3 Prime Untranslated (3'UTR) variant in TMEM30A. My mother has the variant too, and so I inherited it from her.  Trans-Omics for Precision Medicine (TOPMed) database database is the only database that has reported a perso having the variant. Only one person is found to have the variant.  That is out of 150,899 people studied. TOPMed integrates genomic and other data with clinical and environmental data from large cohorts of patients with heart, lung, blood, and sleep (HLBS) disorders. It is a program of  National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) Center. I emailed them and told them that my mother and I have the variant and about my history and family history of neurological issues and psychiatric issues. I wanted to contribute in any way that I can to help them understand the particular variant.  Disruption of TMEM30A has been found to result in cerebellar ataxia and degeneration of Purkinje cells


The Human Phenotypes of both NUAK1 and TMEM30A include:

Focal motor seizures, Focal seixures, Atonic seizures, Supranuclear gaze palsy, Action tremor, Action tremor, Febrile seizures, Visual hallucinations, Dialeptic seizures, Progressive cerebellar ataxia, Truncal ataxia, Dysdiadochokinesis, Poor eye contact, Abnormal eating behavior, Broad-based gait,, EEG with generalized epileptiform discharges, Depression, Anxiety, Impaired social interactions, Insomnia


I let Varsome site know that I have the two ultra rare potentially disease-causing variants with a request to communicate with those that have these variants and inform them about my neurological and psychiatric issues. I also did the same for other ultra rare potentially disease-causing variants that I found in SGSM2 (a Stop Gained), TMEM63A (a Splice Acceptor), MC4R (a Missense), IFT172 (a Missense), SLC4A2 (a Missense).  I wanted to contibute to genetic research in any way that I can.  That's why I even volunteered for All of US Research Program with my provision of a blood sample and urine sample. As a highly multi-ethnic multi-continental American that is of around half Sub Saharan African with neurological issues, I feel obligated to help deal with under-representation of people of African ancestry in genetic research. I have very strong interest in Developmental Neurogenomics.

I gave the following specific information about myself at the Varsome site for each variant profile. It is exactly what I told NHLBI

"I have the variant. I am a neurodivergent male with Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, ADHD. I also have Ataxia. I had auditory therapy, speech therapy, phonics training, and motor skills therapy in early childhood. I was in special education for 3 years in my early childhood. I was mistaken for being intellectually disabled in early childhood but later identified as having above average intelligence. As an adult, I was misdiagnosed as having Schizoaffective Disorder and Bipolar Disorder. I have been diagnosed as having Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Dysthymic Disorder, Social Phobia, Dependent Personality Disorder, and Avoidant Personality Disorder in the past. I am a highly sensitive person that is mainly a picture thinker. I am a visual spatial learner. I have index fingers longer than ring fingers (highly feminine finger ratio) and I have been found to have high estrogen levels."


I found two rare variants in regulatory regions with Combined Annotation Dependent Depletion scores (CADD) scores of more than 10 (top 10% of most deleterious). 

One is a variant with a 19.2 CADD score in FOXP2 which is a gene that is connected to the development of speech and language. Variants in FOXP2 has been associated with Speech/Language Disorders, Learning Disability, Apraxia, Autism, Dyslexia, ADHD, Developmental Coordination Disorder, and Schizophrenia.  I also have an ultra rare Missense variant, but Varsome site shows it having strong signs of being benign.

The other variant is a  variant with a 12.3 CADD score in KIAA0319L which is a gene that is in Dyslexia Susceptibility 8 (DYX8) Genetic Locus.  It is involved in neuronal migration during development of the cerebral neocortex.  Variants in KIAA0319L have been associated with Dyslexia, Reading Disorder, Learning Disability, and Autism.


I found two uncommon variants in regulatory regions with CADD scores of more than 10 (top 10% of the most deleterious)

One is a regulatory region variant with a 16.7 CADD score in HTR1B which is a gene connected to Serotonin. Variants in HTR1B have been associated with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Personality Disorders, Mood Disorders, Depression, Anxiety, Autism, ADHD, and Substance Dependence. 

The other is a 3'UTR variant with a 13.3 CADD score in NOVA1 which is a gene connected to regulating alternative splicing in neurons. I learned about the gene from watching a youtube presentation video  'Neuro-archealization: Resurrecting Genetic Variations in Human Brain Organoids'. Variants in NOVA1 have been associated with Dementia, Neuromuscular Disease, Epilepsy, and Autism. 


All six of the genes have significant expression in the nervous system and overall areas of the brain. They also have significant expresion in vestibular system which creates the sense of balance and spatial orientation for the purpose of coordinating movement with balance. 

These genes show a very strong genetic overlap involving neurological conditions and psychiatric disorders.

FOXP2 (Forkhead Box P2) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with FOXP2 include Isolated Childhood Apraxia Of Speech and Speech And Communication Disorders. Among its related pathways are Pathways affected in adenoid cystic carcinoma and Wnt / Hedgehog / Notch. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include DNA-binding transcription factor activity and sequence-specific DNA binding. An important paralog of this gene is FOXP4. 

This gene encodes a member of the forkhead/winged-helix (FOX) family of transcription factors. It is expressed in fetal and adult brain as well as in several other organs such as the lung and gut. The protein product contains a FOX DNA-binding domain and a large polyglutamine tract and is an evolutionarily conserved transcription factor, which may bind directly to approximately 300 to 400 gene promoters in the human genome to regulate the expression of a variety of genes. This gene is required for proper development of speech and language regions of the brain during embryogenesis, and may be involved in a variety of biological pathways and cascades that may ultimately influence language development. Mutations in this gene cause speech-language disorder 1 (SPCH1), also known as autosomal dominant speech and language disorder with orofacial dyspraxia. Multiple alternative transcripts encoding different isoforms have been identified in this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]

HTR1B (5-Hydroxytryptamine Receptor 1B) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with HTR1B include Pineal Dysgerminoma and Malignant Pineal Area Germ Cell Neoplasm. Among its related pathways are GPCR downstream signalling and Class A/1 (Rhodopsin-like receptors). Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include G protein-coupled receptor activity and G protein-coupled serotonin receptor activity. An important paralog of this gene is HTR1E.

 The protein encoded by this intronless gene is a G-protein coupled receptor for serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine). Ligand binding activates second messengers that inhibit the activity of adenylate cyclase and manage the release of serotonin, dopamine, and acetylcholine in the brain. The encoded protein may be involved in several neuropsychiatric disorders and therefore is often a target of antidepressant and other psychotherapeutic drugs. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]
