RCV001032711 | SCV001196018 | pathogenic | Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 1; Autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 12 | 2024-01-22 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is a gross deletion of the genomic region encompassing exon(s) 7-8 of the WWOX gene. While this deletion is not anticipated to lead to nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the C-terminus of the protein. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with WWOX-related conditions. This variant disrupts a region of the WWOX protein in which other variant(s) (p.Q354*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 29390993; Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
