We identified a de novo frameshift variant (NM_015048.1:c.5644_5647del:p.(Ile1882Serfs*118)) in the last exon of SETD1B in a Japanese patient with autistic behavior, developmental delay, intellectual disability, and myoclonic seizures. This variant is predicted to disrupt a well-conserved carboxyl-terminus SET domain, which is known to modulate gene activities and/or chromatin structure. Previously, two de novo missense mutations in SETD1B were reported in two patients with epilepsy. All three patients including the current patient share similar clinical features. Herein, we report a first epilepsy patient with a frameshift variant in SETD1B, emphasizing a possible pathomechanistic association of SETD1B abnormality with neurodevelopmental delay with epilepsy.
