Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001201345 SCV000934668 pathogenic Zellweger spectrum disorders 2024-07-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1231Hisfs*3) in the PEX1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PEX1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21031596, 26387595, 31831025). This variant is present in population databases (rs769836601, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Zellweger syndrome spectrum disorder (PMID: 16141001, 19105186). This variant is also known as c.3691_3694delCAGT. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188981). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

GeneDx RCV001008785 SCV001168577 pathogenic not provided 2019-01-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.3693_3696delGTCA variant in the PEX1 gene has been reported previously in the homozygous state and with another PEX1 gene variant, in unrelated individuals with Zellweger syndrome (Rosewich et al., 2005; Yik et al., 2009). The c.3693_3696delGTCA variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Glutamine 1231, changes this amino acid to a Histidine residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 3 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Gln1231HisfsX3. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The c.3693_3696delGTCA variant is not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). We interpret c.3693_3696delGTCA as a pathogenic variant.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV001420908 SCV001623353 pathogenic Peroxisome biogenesis disorder 2021-04-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: PEX1 c.3693_3696delGTCA (p.Gln1231HisfsX3) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 250994 control chromosomes. c.3693_3696delGTCA has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Zellweger Syndrome and subsequently cited by others (example, Rosewich_2005, Yik_2009, Lu_2021). Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
