RCV003122588 | SCV003791162 | uncertain significance | Peroxisome biogenesis disorder 11A (Zellweger) | 2022-03-26 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. This variant disrupts a region of the PEX13 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Pro327Arg) have been observed in individuals with PEX13-related conditions (PMID: 21031596). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PEX13-related conditions. This variant is a gross deletion of the genomic region encompassing exon(s) 2-4 of the PEX13 gene, which includes the termination codon. This deletion extends beyond the assayed region for this gene and therefore may encompass additional genes. While this deletion is not anticipated to lead to nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to alter mRNA translation or result in a truncated protein product. |
