RCV004578964 | SCV005062955 | pathogenic | Bifunctional peroxisomal enzyme deficiency; Perrault syndrome | 2024-01-02 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is a gross deletion of the genomic region encompassing exon(s) 15-16 of the HSD17B4 gene. This deletion is out-of-frame, and is expected to create a premature termination codon and result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in HSD17B4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11810648, 16385454, 20673864). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with HSD17B4-related conditions. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
