RCV002271879 | SCV002556043 | likely pathogenic | Rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata type 1 | 2022-06-02 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: PEX7 c.418-1G>A is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes a 3' acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251080 control chromosomes. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.418-1G>A in individuals affected with Rhizomelic Chondrodysplasia Punctata Type 1 and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. |
