encodes a human long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) adjacent to , a coding gene in which de novo loss-of-function variants cause developmental and epileptic encephalopathy. Here, we report our findings in three unrelated children with a syndromic, early-onset neurodevelopmental disorder, each of whom had a de novo deletion in the locus. The children had severe encephalopathy, shared facial dysmorphisms, cortical atrophy, and cerebral hypomyelination - a phenotype that is distinct from the phenotypes of patients with haploinsufficiency. We found that the deletion results in increased CHD2 protein abundance in patient-derived cell lines and increased expression of the transcript in . These findings indicate that has bidirectional dosage sensitivity in human disease, and we recommend that other lncRNA-encoding genes be evaluated, particularly those upstream of genes associated with mendelian disorders.

编码一个人类长链非编码 RNA（lncRNA），该 RNA 与编码基因相邻，该基因中的从头失活功能变异导致发育性和癫痫性脑病。在这里，我们报告了在三个无关联的患有综合征性、早发性神经发育障碍的儿童中发现的结果，他们每个人都在 基因座上发生了新生缺失。这些儿童患有严重的脑病，具有共享的面部畸形、皮质萎缩和脑少突胶质发育不良-这种表型与 CHD8 基因功能不全患者的表型不同。我们发现， 缺失导致患者来源的细胞系中 CHD2 蛋白丰度增加， 转录本在 中表达增加。这些发现表明 在人类疾病中具有双向剂量敏感性，我们建议评估其他编码 lncRNA 的基因，特别是那些与孟德尔疾病相关基因上游的基因。（由国家人类基因组研究所等资助）。
