HI Evidence Comments:
SIM1 loss-of-function was been associated with a "Prader-Willi-like" phenotype characterized by developmental delay, intellectual disability, obesity, and/or hyperplasia based on an article by Holder et al (2000, PMID 10587584) describing a de novo balanced translocation between 1p22.1 and 6q16.2. The translocation breakpoint on chromosome 6 fell within the first intron and separated the 5' flanking sequence and the first exon from downstream exams. No transcripts on chromosome 1 were disrupted. All reports in the literature of SIM1 loss are of deletions encompassing SIM1 and other genes, do not provide information on inheritance and/or do not provide clear phenotypic information. Predicted loss-of-function variants in SIM1 (nonsense and frameshift) have been identified in obese individuals. A heterozygous frameshift was reported in a clinical exome sequencing cohort by Yavarna et al (2015, PMID 26077850), but no clinical details were provided. Rare SIM1 missense variants which reduce SIM1 activity have been identified in obesity cohorts (PMID: 23778136).
