Popis: Herein, we present a Chinese infant with an early-onset intellectual developmental disorder with cardiac arrhythmia syndrome. A 6-month-old boy visited our hospital because of convulsions and paroxysmal cyanosis for 1 day. Mental development analysis showed that the patient had a neurodevelopmental delay. Frequent seizures occurred, and ECG monitoring demonstrated severe cardiac arrhythmia. Whole-exome sequencing showed that the infant had two compound heterozygous variants, NM_016194:c.458G>A/p.Cys153Tyr and NM_016194:c.1032C>A/p.Tyr344*, in GNB5. The first variant was inherited from his mother, while the other one was a de novo variant. Haplotype analysis indicated that the de novo variant was located in the paternal chromosome. Structural modeling indicated that both mutations could influence the interaction of GNB5 with its binding protein. Our study expanded the known genetic and phenotypic spectrum of GNB5-associated diseases, by presenting a Chinese male infant with IDDCA.
